Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Fair. "Hermann Wilhelm Göring (or Goering;[a] German pronunciation: [ø??????] (listen); 12 January 1893? 15 October 1946), was a German politician, military leader, and leading member of the Nazi Party (NSDAP). A veteran of World War I as an ace fighter pilot, he was a recipient of the coveted Pour le Mérite, also known as the "Blue Max". He was the last commander of Jagdgeschwader 1, the fighter wing once led by Manfred von Richthofen, the "Red Baron". A member of the NSDAP from its early days, Göring was wounded in 1923 during the failed coup known as the Beer Hall Putsch. He became permanently addicted to morphine after being treated with the drug for his injuries. He founded the Gestapo in 1933. Göring was appointed commander-in-chief of the Luftwaffe (air force) in 1935, a position he held until the final days of World War II. By 1940 he was at the peak of his power and influence; as minister in charge of the Four Year Plan, he was responsible for much of the functioning of the German economy in the build-up to World War II. Adolf Hitler promoted him to the rank of Reichsmarschall, a rank senior to all other Wehrmacht commanders, and in 1941 Hitler designated him as his successor and deputy in all his offices. Göring's standing with Hitler was greatly reduced by 1942, with the Luftwaffe unable to fulfill its commitments and the German war effort stumbling on both fronts. Göring largely withdrew from the military and political scene and focused on the acquisition of property and artwork, much of which was confiscated from Jewish victims of the Holocaust. Informed on 22 April 1945 that Hitler intended to commit suicide, Göring sent a telegram to Hitler asking to assume control of the Reich. Hitler then removed Göring from all his positions, expelled him from the party, and ordered his arrest. After World War II, Göring was convicted of war crimes and crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg Trials. He was sentenced to death by hanging, but committed suicide by ingesting cyanide the night before the sentence was to be carried out."--Wikipedia.

Drawing on memories of his own personal relationship with Hermann Goering before World War II as well as interviews with Goering's stepson and widow, Albert Speer and other surviving Nazi officials, and a vast cache of Goering's personal letters and documents, Leonard Mosley presents an indelible portrait of the Reich Marshal. Goering's childhood and his youthful days as a World War I hero, his remarkable first marriage to his beloved Carin and their years in Sweden, his drug addiction, his gaudy private life, his arrogance toward others and servility toward Hitler, his last~minute suicide to escape the Allies' gallows ~ all reveal the complex and conflicting personal forces that explain both his devotion to his Fuehrer and the Nationalist Socialist State and his repugnance for the madmen, hoodlums, and perverts with whom he shared its leadership. Along the way the author suggests a provocative theory which connects Goering's numerous idiosyncrasies, his chronic overweight, and his entire later development to the excruciating and never properly healed wounds he received in the abortive "Beer Hall Putsch." What emerges, after years of scorn in which Goering's name was heaped together with those of the other Nazi criminals, is a figure of startling talents and abilities, yet for all that a terribly misguided and power~hungry man who allowed the dark side of his nature to overcome his essential sanity. Leonard Mosley is the author of twenty~one previous books, including five novels. His greatest fascination is in chronicling the events leading up to and during World War II, as demonstrated in such best~sellers as Hirohito, a biography of the Japanese emperor, On Borrowed Time, a study of the origins of the war, and Backs to the Wall, an account of the British people during the Blitz. World War II is a subject which Mosley knows through personal experience, for beginning in the mid~1930s he became a roving reporter for the British press, stationed in Berlin, and eventually became chief war correspondent covering the Battle of Britain and every major campaign in Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa. It was while in Berlin that he first met Hermann Goering who later tried to influence the young reporter in connection with his own peace overtures to Britain. Codice articolo 6201703
