Overview
Companion volume to Nazi Women, but this one widens the scope of investigation. No material is repeated as author Paul Roland digs deeper into the subject of Adolf Hitler and his female admirers, and introduces such topics as the women who betrayed their own sex, as well as the women who said No to Nazi ideology, Hitler's Jewish Princess and his valkyries, and the indoctrination of young women into the League of German Girls.
The cast list features among many others: Winifred Wagner, the woman Hitler was expected to marry in 1933; Hanna Reitsch, a stunt pilot and ardent Nazi; Vera Wohlauf, the wife of a leader of a Nazi execution squad; Margaret White, the wife of William Joyce ('Lord Haw-Haw') who was hanged by the British in 1946 for treason.
Divided into separate chapters by subject matter, this book features two plate sections of great photographs.
Also featuring Hitler, Himmler, Goebbels, Goering and other inner-circle Nazis.
