    About this audiobook

    This book is the culmination of more than three decades of meticulous historiographic research on Nazi Germany by one of the period’s most distinguished historians. The volume brings together the most important and influential aspects of Ian Kershaw’s research on the Holocaust for the first time. The writings are arranged in three sections―Hitler and the Final Solution, popular opinion and the Jews in Nazi Germany, and the Final Solution in historiography―and Kershaw provides an introduction and a closing section on the uniqueness of Nazism.

    Kershaw was a founding historian of the social history of the Third Reich, and he has throughout his career conducted pioneering research on the societal causes and consequences of Nazi policy. His work has brought much to light concerning the ways in which the attitudes of the German populace shaped and did not shape Nazi policy. This volume presents a comprehensive, multifaceted picture both of the destructive dynamic of the Nazi leadership and of the attitudes and behavior of ordinary Germans as the persecution of the Jews spiraled into total genocide.

      A very important book for understanding today's political radicalization in Europe and the USA! At the start of the book, Ian Kershaw takes the reader very close to the decision-making processes within the NSDAP regarding the genocide of the Jewish population of Europe. He also provides an answer as to how far Hitler was directly involved in the processes and decisions. By examining the everyday history of the German population, he shows how their consistent turning a blind eye to a general hatred of the 'Jews' made the genocide possible in the first place. In the concluding section, he looks at research into the 'Final Solution to the Jewish Question' and discusses the so-called historians' dispute of the 1980s in detail. In the concluding chapter, the question is raised as to whether today's European societies could, under certain circumstances, be radicalized in the same way as they were almost 100 years ago.

      This was a fantastic book to listen to. Probably the definitive work on the subject. It is a little academic at times but that is the nature of this publication. Incredibly informative and for reaching in its terms of reference. Highly recommended.

      It left me speechless. The German people knew so much but did nothing.
