• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Analyzing the previously unexplored religious views of the Nazi elite, Richard Steigmann-Gall argues against the consensus that Nazism was either unrelated to Christianity or actively opposed to it. He demonstrates that many in the Nazi movement believed their ideology was based on a Christian understanding of Germany's ills.
