Hitler's First Hundred Days: When Germans Embraced the Third Reich by Peter Fritzsche

3.0

Reading this book is a lot like reading a college level history book - covers the most impactful and interesting parts of the history, minimally biased and maximally factual, and not much by way of prose. Getting through this book was tough at points because it's so dense, and I feel like it was a bit repetitive for emphasis, but could have been more succinct and still relayed the same point. Still, the information presented is invaluable and incredibly detailed. I'm fascinated by the social intricacies that presented themselves throughout the 1930s in Nazi Germany, and for something like the rise of Nazi fascism which faces so much blanketing and generalization, I feel like this book is really important in keeping the nuances and facts alive.
