Hitler's Empire: How the Nazis Ruled Europe by Mark Mazower

5.0

About as good a book you are going to find on how the Third Reich ruled Europe. The short answer was cruelly, inefficiently, stupidly, and above all else, poorly. The endless stories about all of the little madmen that ruled over Europe for a handful of years makes for endlessly compelling reading, even as the various descriptions of genocide, massacres, and evil make you want to put the book down. And Mazower's conclusions about the ultimate effects that the New Order left on the world ring especially true.
