Summaries and Reviews
Amazon.com description: Product Description: This volume demonstrates that, contrary to widely held current opinion, Germany was organized for and committed to total war to an extent not usually recognized. Dr Hancock studies the concepts of total war, and the policies and attitudes of the National Socialist leadership to mobilizing the German economy and society for World War II. The author examines four leaders: Martin Bormann - Secretary to Hitler, Joseph Goebbels - Propaganda Minister, Heinrich Himmler - Reichsfuehrer-SS, and Albert Speer - Minister for Armaments. Their policies are examined in both an ideological and economic context against the background of the German war effort, and it is shown that these leaders did support total war and strove to implement it. The theory of "total work" as a 20th-century concept is also explored.
