Opis

Wendy Lower's account of the role of ordinary German women on the Nazi Eastern Front powerfully revises history. She builds a fascinating and convincing picture of a morally lost generation of young women, born into a defeated, tumultuous post-WWI Germany, and then swept up in the nationalistic fervor of the Nazi movement.
