The first volume of a new narrative history of the rise and fall of
the Nazi regime, by an expert on the Third Reich. 'One of the books
of the year' Dan Snow 'A masterclass in the history of Nazi
Germany' Get History 'What makes this volume really stand out is
its stylish design and more than 80 coloured photographs' Military
History On 30 January 1933, Adolf Hitler was appointed the German
Chancellor of a coalition government by President Hindenburg.
Within a few months he had installed a dictatorship, jailing and
killing his leftwing opponents, terrorising the rest of the
population and driving Jews out of public life. He embarked on a
crash programme on militaristic Keynesianism, reviving the economy
and achieving full employment through massive public works, vast
armaments spending and the cancellations of foreign debts. After
the grim years of the Great Depression, Germany seemed to have been
reborn as a brutal and determined European power. Over the course
of the years from 1933 to 1939, Hitler won over most of the
population to his vision of a renewed Reich. In these years of
domestic triumph, cunning manoeuvres, pitting neighbouring powers
against each other and biding his time, we see Hitler preparing for
the moment that would realise his ambition. But what drove Hitler's
success was also to be the fatal flaw of his regime: a relentless
belief in war as the motor of greatness, a dream of vast conquests
in Eastern Europe and an astonishingly fanatical racism. In The
Hitler Years, Frank McDonough charts the rise and fall of the Third
Reich under Hitler's hand. The first volume, Triumph, ends after
Germany's comprehensive military defeat of Poland in 1939.
