Publisher's Synopsis

In this book the authors provide a chronicle of the atrocities that took place in Germany under the Third Reich, and a testimony to the evil that was perpetrated and condoned there. It consists of extracts from diaries, letters and reports, eye-witness accounts, photographs and transcripts of confessions in which the murderers, collaborators and onlookers describe how the mass murder of Jews was organized and carried out to the bitter end. It shows how deeply the "Weltanschauung" of national socialism was anchored in the German nation's psyche.

About the Publisher

Hamish Hamilton

The first ten paperback Penguin books appeared in 1935 costing 6d each (the price of a packet of cigarettes). Since then the Penguin list has developed enormously, but still aims to bring the best writing to the widest possible audience. Penguin Paperbacks now range from Booker Prize-winning contemporary authors, to mass market bestsellers, with successful history, biography and general non-fiction as well.
