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 The book also presents selections from approximately 80,000 unpublished letters (now archived in Berlin) written during the war by civilians and German soldiers.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. 606 $aNational socialism$xSocial aspects 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$xSocial aspects$zGermany 606 $aWorld War, 1939-1945$vPersonal narratives, German 607 $aGermany$xHistory$y1933-1945 607 $aGermany$xSocial conditions$y1933-1945 607 $aGermany$xSocial life and customs$y20th century 607 $aGermany$xHistory$y1933-1945$vBiography 610 $a1936 olympics. 610 $aanti semitism. 610 $aautobiography. 610 $abiography. 610 $adiaries. 610 $adisabled people. 610 $aeurope. 610 $agenocide. 610 $agerman children. 610 $agerman culture. 610 $agerman history. 610 $agerman society. 610 $agerman soldiers. 610 $agerman. 610 $agermans. 610 $agermany. 610 $ahistory. 610 $ahitler youth. 610 $ahitler. 610 $aholocaust. 610 $amass media. 610 $amemoir. 610 $anazi children. 610 $anazi party rallies. 610 $anazi regime. 610 $anonfiction. 610 $apolitical suppression. 610 $apropaganda. 610 $athird reich. 610 $aunpublished letters. 610 $aviolence. 610 $aworld history. 610 $aworld war two. 610 $aww2. 615 0$aNational socialism$xSocial aspects. 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945$xSocial aspects 615 0$aWorld War, 1939-1945 676 $a943.086 686 $aNQ 2170$2rvk 700 $aTubach$b Frederic C$0220499 701 $aTubach$b Sally P$g(Sally Patterson),$f1946-$01491381 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910781291603321 996 $aGerman voices$93713180 997 $aUNINA
