German Soldiers Write Home -- NotesWhat was it like to grow up German during Hitler's Third Reich? In this extraordinary book, Frederic C. Tubach returns to the country of his roots to interview average Germans who, like him, came of age between 1933 and 1945. Tubach sets their recollections and his own memories into a broad historical overview of Nazism-a regime that shaped minds through persuasion (meetings, Nazi Party rallies, the 1936 Olympics, the new mass media of radio and film) and coercion (violence and political suppression). The voices of this long-overlooked population-ordinary people who were neither victims nor perpetrators-reveal the rich complexity of their attitudes and emotions. The book also presents selections from approximately 80,000 unpublished letters (now archived in Berlin) written during the war by civilians and German soldiers. Tubach powerfully provides new insights into Germany's most tragic years, offering a nuanced response to the abiding question of how a nation made the quantum leap from anti-Semitism to systematic genocide.National socialismSocial aspectsWorld War, 1939-1945Social aspectsGermanyWorld War, 1939-1945Personal narratives, GermanGermanyHistory1933-1945GermanySocial conditions1933-1945GermanySocial life and customs20th centuryGermanyHistory1933-1945Biography1936 olympics.anti semitism.autobiography.biography.diaries.disabled people.europe.genocide.german children.german culture.german history.german society.german soldiers.german.germans.germany.history.hitler youth.hitler.holocaust.mass media.memoir.nazi children.nazi party rallies.nazi regime.nonfiction.political suppression.propaganda.third reich.unpublished letters.violence.world history.world war two.ww2.National socialismSocial aspects.World War, 1939-1945Social aspectsWorld War, 1939-1945943.086NQ 2170rvkTubach Frederic C220499Tubach Sally P(Sally Patterson),1946-1722488MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910817407803321German voices4122902UNINA
