Katrin Himmlers cool but meticulous examination of the Himmler story reveals -- in all its dark complexity -- the gulf between the normality of bourgeois family life & the horrors perpetrated by one member. This riveting family memoir provides essential new information on the private life & background of one of the twentieth- centurys most notorious killers -- not a lone evil executioner but a middle-class family man loved & fully supported by his respectable German family. It also offers a unique account of one womens courageous attempt to deal with her chilling inheritance. It is part of the creeping discomfort in reading her book to realise the incredibly ordinary middle-class background of these three sons of a rather pompous provincial headmaster & to see how right until the end he was almost able to convince himself it hadnt happened like it had Sunday Times You get a vivid sense of a particular kind of German conservatism

This book is the most thorough study yet of the whole process of recruitment indoctrination & performance of those responsible for the guarding of concentration camp inmates. It is not an attractive subject
- the conversion of human beings into murderers & individuals routinely carrying out appalling acts of cruelty is bound to be shocking. But it happened under the Third Reich on a massive scale. Of the 55 000 Nazi concentration camp guards some 3 700 were women. The book studies their behaviour with examples along with that of their male counter-parts. The book follows the development of concentration camps from the early beginnings in the 1930s (Buchenwald Sachsenhausen etc) through their establishment in the conquered territories of Poland & Czechoslovakia to the extermination camps (Dachau Auschwitz). In parallel it describes using original source material the behaviour of the guards who became in numerous cases immune to the horrors around them. This is well borne out by the conduct of the guards during the Liberation process which is also movingly described using numerous personal accounts of shocked Allied personnel.
