The Nazi regime and the Holocaust

Nazi Germany's Holocaust has become something of a benchmark for all other genocides. This instructive volume offers readers insight into the background of its mastermind, Adolf Hitler, and sets the stage for the appalling fates of so many minorities, including Jews, Catholics, Gypsies, homosexuals, and other allegedly "inferior" groups of people in Germany, who were tortured, held captive, and slaughtered. Readers will also learn about their lives before the terrors began and the curious and terrifying views of Hitler and his followers, which changed the lives of Jews and other minorities in.
