Hermann Göring

50 years after his death, Göring continues to stir debate. Was he a master tactician on the level of Rommel or an obedient servant of his mad Fuehrer? Was he an administrator ranking with Goebbels & Himmler, or a lazy glory-seeker as much responsible for the Nazi defeat as Hitler? This analytical new biography draws on files (with over 50 photos) from former East German archives. Follow the author's argument & see if you agree that Göring's undoing was to put his fear of Hitler & devotion to ideology ahead of his military knowledge & patriotism.
