Who belongs in the Second Reich? Bismarck and the Unification of Germany -- Kaiser Wilhelm II and the drift into the First World War -- Revolution in Germany and the creation of the Weimar Republic -- The Weimar Republic: shaky foundations -- Hitler's early life and rise to power in Germany -- Domestic policies: consolidation of power -- Domestic policies toward Jews -- 1938: the turning point year -- Hitler's Europe in theory and practice
Beth A. Griech-Polelle examines the factors that led to the ascendance of Adolf Hitler during the rebuilding of post-WWI Germany. Moving from the birth of modern Germany through the First World, War, Polelle then focuses on Hitler's early years and the creation of the National Social German Workers' Party. Polelle illustrates how Hitler consolidated power--resulting in a society divided against itself and at war with a major portion of the world--and also maintains a special focus on the persecution of the Jewish population, both inside Nazi Germany and in conquered parts of Europe
