Creating Hitler's Germany

This is a solid, concise introduction to German experience under Hitler. ~Publishers Weekly

The compelling, sometimes shocking first-person accounts will draw YAs into this illuminating history." ~Sara Jorgensen, Booklist

“Heath stitches together a social history of Nazi Germany. Heath’s writing is sometimes clichéd (“When the bear awakes, and angrily shows its teeth, only the foolhardy will not turn and run”), and readers may find his description of the ending stages of WWII as a “reciprocal genocide of Germans” outlandish. But for those new to the subject, this is a solid, concise introduction to German experience under Hitler.” ~Publishers Weekly

If we do not learn the lessons of history we will be doomed to repeat the behaviors, national and personal, that have resulted in the tragedies of the past. One outstanding 20th Century example is how Germany was treated at the end of World War I and how she was treated at the end of World War II -- that latter treatment having prevented a World War III for the past 75 years. Exceptionally well written, organized and presented, Tim Heath's "Creating Hitler's Germany: The Birth of Extremism" is very highly recommended for community and academic library 20th Century History collections.
