Reviews

`Review from previous edition This excellent book reminds us that one of the many ways to hit historical gold is to reshuffle the cards and deal them afresh... Dr Bloxham writes so well and manages the three-ringed circus of his argument so deftly that his book is a lot easier to read and its argument easier to follow than might have been expected of an enterprise boldly transcending the departmental boundaries of law, history and politics. It must be of interest to far too many and various readerships to be allowed to be cast simply as a new item in the miscellaneous category of 'Holocaust Studies'.' Geoffrey Best, EHR, June 2002


Bloxham's book is a serious, well-researched, and wide-ranging study, as well as being well-argued. The Jewish Journal of Sociology Fine study ... astute analysis ... a most impressive contribution to the literature on Nazism. History
