Is there no limit to the modern world’s obsession with the Third Reich? Hitler died just 60 years ago, yet the standard bibliography of the subject lists more than 37,000 serious works on National Socialism. A good book on the Nazis, it is said, will still outsell any other history. A bad book on the Nazis will do just as well. Even in a crowded field, however, Richard Evans’s trilogy on the Third Reich stands out. Published simultaneously in English and German, it has now reached its second volume, and promises to be the best general account of the subject in either language.
