This is not so much a companion to Nazi Germany as a compendium.’ – History Teaching Review'This well-informed and moderately priced work succeeds in its object of explaining the many controversies arising from historical interpretation of a catastrophic period of European history, while leaving its readers to make up their own minds which view is most convincing to them.' –K.C.Fraiser, St Andrews University'Altogether this is a very useful book, especially for those beginning their studies.' – Contemporary Review
