Masterfully interweaving the story of Himmler's personal life and political career with the wider history of the Nazi dictatorship, Longerich shows how skillfully he exploited and manipulated his disparate roles in the pursuit of his far-reaching and grandiose objectives. In the process, he illuminates the extraordinary degree to which Himmler's own personal prejudices, idiosyncrasies, and predilections made their mark on the organizations for which he was responsible--especially the SS, which in so many ways bore the characteristic hallmarks of its leader, and whose history remains incomprehensible without a detailed and intimate knowledge of its deeply sinister commander-in-chief"--Dust-jacket. 000684838 60010 $$aHimmler, Heinrich,$$d1900-1945. 000684838 61020 $$aNationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiter-Partei.$$bSchutzstaffel. 000684838 650_0 $$aNazis$$zGermany$$vBiography. 000684838 650_0 $$aHolocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) 000684838 651_0 $$aGermany$$xPolitics and government$$y1933-1945. 000684838 7001_ $$aNoakes, Jeremy. 000684838 7001_ $$aSharpe, Lesley,$$d1952- 000684838 85200 $$bgen$$hDD247.H46$$iL6513$$i2012 000684838 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:684838$$pGLOBAL_SET 000684838 980__ $$aBIB 000684838 980__ $$aBOOK
