In lieu of everyone calling everyone else a Hitler whether it's because we condone torture or advocate giving health care to the poor, I thought it useful to review the book:

excellent high-level history of nazi germany before, during, and after written by a journalist who was there.

The first book a person should read on the third reich and then move on to the other areas of interest about the Nazis or that period of history. Simply the best overview written. ( )
