It was Hitler's boast that the Third Reich would last a thousand
years. Instead it lasted only twelve. But into its short life was
packed the most cataclysmic series of events that Western
civilisation has ever known. William Shirer is one of the very few
historians to have gained full access to the secret German archives
which the Allies captured intact. He was also present at the
Nuremberg trials. First published sixty years ago, Shirer's account
of the years 1933-45, when the Nazis, under the rule of their
despotic leader Adolf Hitler, ruled Germany is held up as a classic
of its time. Some of his views have not stood the test of time but
in this book Shirer explores how the Nazis commandeered the
Holocaust, one of the most shocking acts of evil in modern history,
plunged the world into a second war, and changed the face of modern
history and modern Europe forever. 'One of the most important works
of history of our time.' New York Times 'I can think of no book
which I would rather put in the hands of anyone who wanted to find
out what happened in Germany between 1930 and 1945, and why the
history of those years should never be forgotten' Alan Bullock
