The sinking of the German battleship Bismarck - a masterpiece of engineering, well-armored with a main artillery of eight 15-inch guns - was one of the most dramatic events of World War II. She left the port of Gotenhafen for her first operation on the night of 18 May 1941, yet was almost immediately discovered by Norwegian resistance and Allied air reconnaissance. British battlecruiser Hood was quickly dispatched from Scapa Flow to intercept the Bismarck, together with new battleship Prince of Wales.

For decades after 1945, it was generally believed that the German army, professional and morally decent, had largely stood apart from the SS, Gestapo, and other corps of the Nazi machine. Ben Shepherd draws on a wealth of primary sources and recent scholarship to convey a much darker, more complex picture. For the first time, the German army is examined throughout the Second World War, across all combat theaters and occupied regions, and from multiple perspectives: its battle performance, social composition, relationship with the Nazi state, and involvement in war crimes and occupation.

A presence in Third Reich cinema, Adolf Hitler also personally financed, ordered, and censored films and newsreels and engaged in complex relationships with their stars and directors. Here, Bill Niven offers a powerful argument for reconsidering Hitler's fascination with film as a means to further the Nazi agenda. In this first English-language work to fully explore Hitler's influence on and relationship with film in Nazi Germany, the author calls on a broad array of archival sources. Niven also explores Hitler's representation in Third Reich cinema, personally and through films focusing on historical figures with whom he was associated

Ein Volk schreibt seinem Führer. Unbekannte Dokumente aus Moskauer Archiven, zum ersten Mal veröffentlicht...

Victor Klemperers Schilderung des Chaos nach dem Ersten Weltkrieg und des Scheiterns der Münchner Räterepublik. Solch genaue, anschauliche Momentaufnahmen aus der belagerten Stadt findet man nirgendwo sonst. Ein bewegendes Gesamtbild von diesem entscheidenden Wendepunkt der deutschen Geschichte - aus der Revolution von 1918/19 ging nicht nur die erste deutsche Demokratie hervor, zugleich kündigte sich in ihr das kommende Unheil an.

For all the literature about Adolf Hitler, there have been just four seminal biographies; this is the fifth, a landmark work that sheds important new light on Hitler himself. Drawing on previously unseen papers and a wealth of recent scholarly research, Volker Ullrich reveals the man behind the public persona, from Hitler's childhood, to his failures as a young man in Vienna, to his experiences during the First World War, to his rise as a far-right party leader.

A stunning look at World War II from the other side.... From the turret of a German tank, Colonel Hans von Luck commanded Rommel's 7th and then 21st Panzer Division. El Alamein, Kasserine Pass, Poland, Belgium, Normandy on D-Day, the disastrous Russian front - von Luck fought there with some of the best soldiers in the world. German soldiers. Awarded the German Cross in Gold and the Knight's Cross, von Luck writes as an officer and a gentleman.

Flakhelfer - das waren Jugendliche vor allem der Jahrgänge 1926 bis 1928, die in den letzten Jahren des Zweiten Weltkriegs noch eingezogen wurden, um die Niederlage NS-Deutschlands weiter hinauszuzögern. Manch ein führender Kopf der Bundesrepublik Deutschland, der dieser Generation angehört, wurde in jungen Jahren als NSDAP-Mitglied geführt. Viele haben das verschwiegen oder vergessen, verleugnet oder verdrängt.

In Burning the Reichstag, Benjamin Hett offers a gripping account of Hitler's rise to dictatorship - one that challenges orthodoxy and recovers the true significance of the part the fire played. At the scene the police arrested 23-year-old Marinus van der Lubbe, a Dutch Communist stonemason. Though he was initially dismissed abroad as a Nazi tool, post-war historians since the 1950s have largely judged him solely guilty - a lone arsonist exploited by Hitler.

"Lesen und an die Vergangenheit denken" - ein historischer Roman. Eingebunden in das dörfliche Leben auf einem Bauernhof um 1830, ist es der Erbrichter Karl Gotthilf Steiger, welcher das Dorf Nassau durch eine gegründete Genossenschaft zur Entfronung vom Kammergut Rechenberg-Bienenmühle führte. Seinen unbeugsamen Willen und umsichtigen Handeln ist es zu verdanken, dass er die hohe Kaufsumme von 34.000 Taler aus Bürgschaften von Begüterten zum Abkauf aufbringen konnte.

Herbert Rosendorfer widmet sich diesmal auf seine unnachahmliche Weise dem Jahrhundert nach dem Dreißigjährigen Krieg. Eine spannende, ironisch-bissige und aufschlussreiche Geschichtsstunde. Gelesen von Gert Heidenreich

Die neue Zeit drängt herein. Die Reformation schlägt ein Loch in die scheinbare Raum-Zeit-Konstante der bisherigen Geschichte, und Europa erfährt nicht gekannte Veränderungen. Herbert Rosendorfer schlägt ein neues, bewegendes Kapitel der deutschen Geschichte auf. Immer hat er dabei die Menschen im Blick, ihre Lebensbedingungen und die Beweggründe hinter den Ereignissen...

Demokratie ohne Demokraten. Die Weimarer Republik war der erste demokratische Staat auf deutschem Boden, aber - es fehlte ihr an begeisterten Demokraten: Die politische Linke sang das Loblied des Kommunismus, während die Rechte um die NSDAP die Soldaten des Ersten Weltkriegs als neue Elite beschwor. Eine besondere Rolle spielte dabei das Radio, das auch für die politische Propaganda missbraucht wurde. Hier sind die wichtigsten Politiker, Schriftsteller und andere Künstler im O-Ton zu hören.

The Third Reich's Luftwaffe began World War II with significant advantages over other European air forces, playing a critical role in the German war machine's swift, powerful advance. By war's end, however, the Luftwaffe had been decimated by combat losses and crippled by poor decisions at the highest levels of military decision-making, and it proved unable to challenge Allied air superiority despite a last-minute upsurge in German aircraft production.

Geschichte fasziniert. Vor allem, wenn ein großer Geschichtenerzähler sie mit so klarem Wissen und in so unterhaltsamer Form darbringt, dabei unversehens ganz neue Zusammenhänge aufdeckt und mit bestechender Sachkenntnis und feinsinniger Beobachtungsgabe die wahren Triebfedern der Geschichte entlarvt.

In the wake of World War II, the European continent was devastated, and the conflict left the Soviet Union and the United States as uncontested superpowers. This ushered in over 45 years of the Cold War, and a political alignment of Western democracies against the Communist Soviet bloc that produced conflicts pitting allies on each sides fighting, even as the American and Soviet militaries never engaged each other. Though it never got “hot”, the Cold War was a tense era until the dissolution of the USSR, and nothing symbolized the split more than the Berlin Wall.

Colditz - the dreaded POW camp was supposed to be impregnable. It was the German fortress from which there was no escape. It had been escape-proof in the 1914-18 war and was to be again in the Second World War, according to the Germans... This is the true story that has passed into legend: the story of the incredible courage and daredevil ingenuity of those who refused to admit defeat - those who burrowed, leapt and ran their way to freedom.

Based on a lifetime living in and reporting on Germany and Central Europe, award-winning journalist and author Peter Millar tackles the fascinating and complex story of the people at the heart of our continent. Focussing on nine cities (only six of which are in the Germany of today), he takes us on a zigzag ride back through time via the fall of the Berlin Wall through the horrors of two world wars and the patchwork states of the Middle Ages to the splendour of Charlemagne and the fall of Rome.

Brunhilde Pomsel described herself as an 'apolitical girl' and a 'figure on the margins', but, employed as a stenographer during the Second World War, she worked closely with one of the worst criminals in world history: Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels. She was one of the oldest surviving eyewitnesses to the internal workings of the Nazi power apparatus until her death in 2017.

In the wake of World War II, the European continent was devastated, and the conflict left the Soviet Union and the United States as uncontested superpowers. This ushered in over 45 years of the Cold War, and a political alignment of Western democracies against the Communist Soviet bloc that produced conflicts pitting allies on each sides fighting. By the 1960s, East Germany was pushing for a solution to the problem of an enclave of freedom within its borders. West Berlin was a haven for highly-educated East Germans who wanted freedom and a better life in the West.
