What made six ordinary men instigate the terrifying criminal Nazi
regime throughout German society and beyond with such enthusiasm
and diligence? Supported by recently discovered files from all over
the world, and interviews with former Nazi members and victims,
Guido Knopp examines the background and activities of some of
Hitler's right-hand men. Here is Adolf Eichmann, who arranged the
deportation of Jews in crowded trains, before sentencing thousands
to a terrifying death as part of the Final Solution; Martin
Bormann, Hitler's secretary and deputy, who controlled sensitive
papers to influence government policy; Joachim von Ribbentrop,
Hitler's foreign advisor; Roland Friesler, known as the hanging
judge on account of his brutality in administrating Nazi law;
Baldur von Schirach, leader of the Hitler Youth movement; and
Joseph Mengele, the doctor involved in the bizarre genetic
experiments on concentration camp prisoners. These very different
people all shared an awestruck dedication to Hitler and a deep
hatred of the Jews. Through the diaries and first-hand observations
of those around them, their personalities are brought to life to
provide an exemplary portrait of the elusive minds of willing Nazi
executors.
