The rise and fall of the Third Reich has been a source of revulsion and fascination since the close of the Second World War. The images of the concentration camps; Hitler's hypnotic oration; and the vast Nuremberg rallies are seared into the collective consciousness. However, it is important that we understand the complex circumstances which allowed this particular branch of fascism to flourish. Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.

For those of us who have studied WW2 for many years, it has largely been illustrated in black & white, with just a limited number of quite well known colour images that have been well used over the years. This shows us that many more colour images exist from that time, and it I think it gives quite a different viewpoint to see these much rarer examples, and together in such a large number. Historians and modellers alike will enjoy this one, and with the modeller in mind, some great inspiration for equipment and uniform detail as well as many diorama ideas. I think this one is sure to be popular.

Plenty of diagrams from that survey are included. While a few of those old bunkers have been demolished since the war, many have not, and there are some great photos of many of them today, both inside and out. Once again, and especially with the extra detail that has been added since that original article, this is another of the modern series of Then & Now books from After the Battle which I think will be very popular, and which will also be handy to have with you if you plan to visit the area yourself.
