Concise, yet packed with detail.

Terrific narration and an excellent synopsis of the history of the rise and fall of the Third Reich. Some of the best value I have ever received from a $1.80 purchase. I plan to check out Colley and Keeble's other "History in an Hour" works.

Captures All of the Highlights!

In this short overview of Nazi Germany, author Rupert Colley writes about the coming to power of Nazi Germany after World War I and the emergence of Adolf Hitler. The story has been told many times before, and this is no exception, as Colley tells it very well.

Even though this particular book is only an hour long, and touches on all the highlights, I still got a real good sense of history and all the things that went on during that era of Nazi Germany.

For anyone with an interest in history (whether it within an hour or not) this is a great book for you!

An hour well-spent.

"Those who forget the past, are destined to relive it."

This is a concise history of the major events leading up to, and surrounding, the rise and fall of the third reich, without being overly cumbersome.
