Munich is one of Europe s most enchanting cities. Exploring its
narrow cobbled streets or wide sunlight boulevards with views of
the Bavarian Alps is a delight. Each autumn, millions of revellers
from around the world join locals in their legendary Octoberfest,
one of the world's biggest festivals. Yet many visitors also know
that Munich has a past so dark that it cast a looming shadow over
the twentieth century: this was the city which played a unique role
in the ascent of Nazism, the Third Reich and Adolf Hitler. It was
in Munich that Hitler first entered the murky world of beer Keller
politics after the First World War. It was here that he established
the fanatical base of his NSDAP party so that the city was, in his
words, the capital of the movement'. This illustrative new book
explains how Munich and its surrounds became inextricably linked
with the rise and fall of Nazism. It provides the modern reader
with a detailed guide to what happened where in the city, why those
events were important in the unfolding history of the Third Reich -
and why they remain a timely warning today.
