What We Knew: Terror, Mass Murder, and Everyday Life in Nazi Germany: An Oral History
What We Knew: Terror, Mass Murder, and Everyday Life in Nazi Germany: An Oral History | Eric A Johnson, Karl-Heinz Reuband
6 posts | 2 read | 1 reading | 18 to read
The horrors of the Nazi regime and the Holocaust still present some of the most disturbing questions in modern history: Why did Hitler's party appeal to millions of Germans, and how entrenched was anti-Semitism among the population? How could anyone claim, after the war, that the genocide of Europe's Jews was a secret? Did ordinary non-Jewish Germans live in fear of the Nazi state? In this unprecedented firsthand analysis of daily life as experienced in the Third Reich, "What We Knew" offers answers to these most important questions. Combining the expertise of Eric A. Johnson, an American historian, and Karl-Heinz Reuband, a German sociologist, "What We Knew" is the most startling oral history yet of everyday life in theThird Reich.

repost for @ChrisBohjalian

I am deeply alarmed by the state of the U.S. Many of you are, too. So, let‘s learn about fascism — a book club, perhaps. But, if nothing else, book suggestions. Let‘s start with WHAT WE KNEW: TERROR, MASS MURDER, AND EVERYDAY LIFE IN NAZI GERMANY.

Dilara The hashtag #readingispolitical might also be of interest.
I've been reading a lot of non-fiction about fascism, nazism and authoritarianism in the last couple of years, but not in English and not necessarily of direct interest to US readers, so I'll probably lurk rather than participate... 1w

My wife majored in American Studies, with a particular focus on WWII. Her shelves definitely, definitely win this category... #booktober "Creepy Cover."
