description: British filmmaker Peter Adam grew up in Hitler's Germany. In this important book, now available in paperback for the first time, he presents hundreds of examples of artwork that was officially sanctioned by the Third Reich, and which has not been seen by the public since the 1940s. Many of the illustrations are taken from German publications of the era, and reveal how all of the nation's arts--including painting, film, and architecture--were methodically manipulated by the regime into tools of Nazi propaganda. Adam's film documentary of the same name, on which this book is based, received a British Academy of Film and Television Arts award for Best Arts Program.
