When the German Reichstag went up in flames on the evening of 27
February 1933, Hitler used the incident to seize power, claiming it
was the work of Communists planning a violent uprising. But who
really started the fire? Were the Nazis to blame, or was it the
work of lone arsonist Marinus van der Lubbe? This debate has been
raging for more than eighty years. The Reichstag Fire seeks to shed
light on this pivotal event that changed the course of world
history. Through a thorough and unbiased analysis of original
source material, award-winning journalist Sven Felix Kellerhoff
charts the outbreak of the fire, the Reich Cabinet's response to
the event, Marinus van der Lubbe's repeated confession to the
crime, and the far-reaching consequences of the fire.
