Inside Hitler's High Command

Geoffrey P. Megargee is Applied Research Scholar at The Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies, U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.

One of the most persistent myths to come out of World War II is that the Third Reich failed because a militarily incompetent Adolf Hitler and a small circle of yes-men consistently overrode the professional judgment of the German General Staff. Megargee does much to dispel this long-standing belief....An immensely illuminating work that casts plenty of blame all around, this will surely provoke much discussion among historians and readers with an interest in the Third Reich. - Publishers Weekly
