Summary:
"Berlin, November 1937. In a secret meeting with his top advisors, Adolf
Hitler
proclaims the urgent necessity for a
war
of aggression in Europe. Some conservatives are unnerved by this grandiose plan, but they are soon silenced, setting in motion events that will lead to the most calamitous
war
in history. Benjamin Carter Hett, the author of The Death of Democracy, his acclaimed history of the fall of the Weimar Republic, takes us from Berlin to London, Moscow, and Washington to show how anti-Nazi forces inside and outside Germany came to understand
Hitler
's true
menace
to European civilization and learned to oppose him. Drawing on original sources in German, English, French, and Russian, including newly released intelligence documents, he paints a sweeping portrait of governments under siege, populated by larger-than-life figures like Winston
Churchill
, Joseph
Stalin
, Neville Chamberlain, Franklin
Roosevelt
, Joachim von Ribbentrop, and Vyacheslav Molotov. The
Nazi
Menace
evokes a time when the verities of life were subverted, a time marked by fake news, cultural unrest over refugees, and the challenges of national security in a consumerist democracy. To read Hett's book is to see the 1930s-and our world today-in a new and unnerving light."--Publisher.
