description: Insightful commentary on the tangible relics of the Third Reich . . . Tells the history of the Nazi regime from a fascinating new perspective ( Military History Monthly ). Hitlers Third Reich is covered in countless books and films: no conflict of the twentieth century has prompted such interest or such a body of literature. Here two leading World War II historians offer a new way to look at the subjectthrough objects that come from this time and place much like a museum exhibit. The photographs gathered by the authors represent subjects including the methamphetamine known as Pervitin Hitlers Mercedes jackboots concentration camp badges a 1932 election poster Wehrmacht mittens Hitlers grooming kit the Tiger Tank fragments of flak and of course the swastika and Mein Kampf  among dozens morealong with informative text that sheds new light on both the objects themselves and the history they represent.
