Stimmen zu »Nazi Germany«
"Among the many textbooks on Nazi Germany Catherine Epstein'sstands out both because of its persuasive combination of the mostrecent research on this subject interwoven with judiciousdiscussions of continuing debates on unresolved historiographicalquestions and because of the skillful ways in which she draws thereader into this complex field. Students and teachers in advancedsecondary as well as higher education will also find this book tobe the best short guide to the history of the NaziHolocaust."
--V.R. Berghahn, Columbia University
