Philip MetcalfeReseñas

Basically the tale of the Nazi consolidation of power, covering January of 1933 to June 30, 1934. The background to the Night of the Long Knives, using diaries, memoirs and diplomatic notes as background. Fascinating and well done.

The gathering storm didn't run on time; nothing was foreordained. We know what happened such that future events cast their shadows behind them, but even the NSDAP had to come to grips with the levers of power.
