_There are no better biographies of Goering, Goebbels and Himmler
in existence_. **New York Review of Books** Heinrich Himmler was
the commander of the SS, and as founder and officer-in-charge of
the Nazi concentration camps and the Einsatzgruppen death squads,
he was responsible for implementing the extermination of millions
of people. By the time he died he was the second-most powerful man
in Germany and regarded himself as Hitler's natural successor,
going so far as to attempt to negotiate independent peace with the
Allies. Based on US documents handed over to the German Federal
Archives and the testimonies of Himmler's family and staff, this
book examines how a seemingly ordinary boy grew into an obsessive
and superstitious man who ventured into herbalism and astrology
before finally turning to the science of racial purity and the
belief in the superiority of the Aryan race. Filled with insights
into Himmler s private life, activities and beliefs, this is an
important study of one of the most sinister figures of World War
II.
