About this ebook
The acclaimed and comprehensive account of Germany's transformation under Hitler's total rule and the inexorable march to war, by the author of The Coming of the Third Reich, The Third Reich at War, and Hitler's People
“[A] masterpiece. Fluidly narrated, tightly organized and comprehensive.” —The New York Times
“A major achievement.” —The Boston Globe
By the middle of 1933, the democracy of the Weimar Republic had been transformed into the police state of the Third Reich, mobilized around the cult of the leader, Adolf Hitler. In The Third Reich in Power, Richard J. Evans chronicles the incredible story of Germany's radical reshaping under Nazi rule. As those who were deemed unworthy to be counted among the German people were dealt with in increasingly brutal terms, Hitler's drive to prepare Germany for the war that he saw as its destiny reached its fateful hour in September 1939. This is the fullest and most authoritative account yet written of how, in six years, Germany was brought to the edge of that terrible abyss.

Good history book. It tells us everything that happened from the time the Third Reich began until the start of World War II. How it began to destroy all kinds of associations and the repression of anyone who thought differently. Persecution and violence against Jews in an increasingly methodical manner. It is read with interest and fluency, despite being very detailed in many of its chapters. To learn about the history that impacted the entire world and continues to do so. (Translated from Spanish)
