The Month
Into the short period of 12 years was packed possibly the most cata clysmic series of events Western civilisation has known—the 12-year life span of the Third Reich, which ended with Hitler's death in 1945.
The evil history of that period will never be told better than it has been in William L Shirer's THE RISE
And Fall Of The Third Reich,
now available as a Pan paperback.
It's the biggest paperback we've ever had in our hands—two inches and 1,436 pages thick, and selling for a most unpaperbackish 19/- in Australia. But it's first rate value.
For those who want chapter and verse there are 100 pages of notes and an index, but the general reader will find nothing in this big book stuffy or dull —although there will be much to horrify him.
