Riassunto

Nazi Germany: Confronting the Myths offers a succinct, compelling overview of the history of the Third Reich. Drawing on the most recent research in the field, Catherine Epstein provides a broad-ranging and up-to-date historical synthesis of Hitler's Germany and of historiographical debates concerning the Nazi regime. The book is structured around myths and stereotypes that dominate popular understanding of this era of German history. By analyzing and debunking those views, the author provides an argument-driven approach to the study of the Third Reich, encouraging critical engagement with the period.

"Among the many textbooks on Nazi Germany Catherine Epstein′sstands out both because of its persuasive combination of the mostrecent research on this subject interwoven with judiciousdiscussions of continuing debates on unresolved historiographicalquestions and because of the skillful ways in which she draws thereader into this complex field.
