Extremely engrossing, very detailed.

+ Not for everybody
+ Barbarossa

This is the 4th volume of the "Official German" history of World War II. There are suppossed to be 10 volumes altogether. Volume 4 is so far the most ambitious and controvesial of the set. It is well over 1000 pages, many, many tables, charts etc. It even comes with a spiral bound 4 color map ...

Oxford University Press, USA, 1991

This is the first of a comprehensive ten-volume history of the Second World War, written from the German perspective and translated for the first time into English. This volume surveys the forces both within and outside Weimar Germany that paved the way for Hitler's accession to power. The authors examine the systematic preparation for war through rearmament, economic autarchy, diplomacy, and ...

Ralf Blank, Jorg Echternkamp, ...

Oxford University Press, USA, 2008

The Second World War affected the lives and shaped the experience of millions of individuals in Germany--soldiers at the front, women, children and the elderly sheltering in cellars, slave laborers toiling in factories, and concentration-camp prisoners and POWs clearing rubble in the Reich's devastated cities. Taking a "history from below" approach, the volume examines how the minds and ...

Gerhard Schreiber, Bernd Stegemann, ...

Oxford University Press, USA, 1995

Worth every penny

I give this book an enthusiastic "thumb's up" for anyone researching the complicated origins of WW2 and seeking in-depth knowledge of the reasons behind critical decisions made by the leaders involved. The book is not for the casual reader and does require some historical background to ...

Oxford University Press, USA, 1991

Packaging quality is lacking; research is outstanding

As the above reviewer pointed out, this is an excellent historical work sold in a horrible package. Oxford University Press has done a disservice to their customers by packaging such a significant work in a low quality binding. I therefore conclude that the volumes are certainly not worth the ...

I've never written a review before, but the review posted here has shocked me so badly I'm forced to give my opinion on the Title. "saw a reference to this book that praised it very highly. I thought about buying it, but not at this insane price. The book is only about 350 pages long. I suppose ...

Oxford University Press, USA, 2000

5 stars for content, zero stars for pricing

While these ten volumes are indispensable to anyone seriously interested in studying Germany in the second world war, Oxford have priced the translation so extortionately that even many libraries will not be able to afford them. What they get out of this I really can't see - at this price point ...

Oxford University Press, USA, 2006

By the spring of 1943, after the defeat at Stalingrad, the writing was on the wall. But while commanders close to the troops on Germany's various fronts were beginning to read it, those at the top were resolutely looking the other way. This seventh volume in the magisterial 10-volume series from the Militargeschichtliches Forschungsamt [Research Institute for Military History] shows both ...
