Created, ordered and led by Adolf Hitler, the state
apparatus of Nazi Germany rigorously controlled all
aspects of life in the Third Reich. To maintain his iron
grip on the German people Hitler surrounded himself with a
small clique of fanatical, devoted acolytes. This is an
extensively illustrated study of these followers - Alfred
Rosenberg, Albert Speer, Heinrich Himmler, Josef Goebbels,
Martin Bormann, Hermann Goering, Baldur von Shirach,
Joachim von Ribbentrop and Rudolf Hess. The book also
includes a profile of Hitler's mistress (and later wife),
Eva Braun.

Luftwaffe's defeat. Packed with statistics and analysis of
campaigns and tactics this volume looks at the early
victories, the Battle of Britain, the air war in Russia,
the struggles over North Africa and the Mediterranean, and
the air defence of the Reich.

1961. He was the first wartime general to become president
