Reviews
"""[Evans'] three-volume history...is shaping up to be a masterpiece. Fluidly narrated, tightly organized, and comprehensive."" -- ""New York Times"" ""A major achievement. No other recent synthetic history has quite the range and narrative power of Evans' work. There are no surprises here. Instead, the reader will find careful, detailed analyses of all the major issues relating to the Third Reich between Hitler's assumption of power on January 31, 1933, and the start of WWII on September 1, 1939."" -- ""Publishers Weekly (starred review)"" ""Examining the populace more than the dictator, Evans expertly surveys Nazidom's precepts and criminality."" -- ""Booklist"" ""In sharp detail, Evans shows how Hitler seized upon his political victory and immediately began his plan for the Nazi infiltration of every aspect of German society...Well written and logically organized, The Third Reich in Power is an impressive work of meticulous, readable history."" -- ""Amazon.com, editorial review"" ""In the second part of a three-volume history of the Third Reich, Evans examines Hitler's regime in the six years running up to the Second World War, exploring everything from art to the economy and shifting diplomatic alliances. He offers exhaustive statistical analysis coupled with the compelling personal narratives of dignitaries, dissidents, and such ordinary Germans as a Hamburg schoolteacher."" -- ""New Yorker"""
