Description
Introduction · · · · · ·
☆The first non-fiction work by German writer Norman Ohler
☆The first comprehensive disclosure of the drug situation under Nazi rule
☆A book that subverts our understanding of the Nazis and World War II
This book is the first comprehensive account of the drug situation under Nazi rule - including cocaine, heroin, morphine and methamphetamine, which played a vital role in restoring the morale of the Nazi army and partly explained why Germany had no shortage of victories in the early stages of the war.
According to Ohler, drugs can't explain the Third Reich's ideology, but they can explain its internal chaos and problematic and questionable decision-making. The book mentions that drugs had a significant impact on Hitler and his entourage, and when the war was not going well for Germany, they even adopted an even more incomprehensible cocktail of drugs to ease their emotions. These chemical stimulants have changed our understanding of the Nazi high-level and their ability to judge the situation.
This book shows another side of Nazi Germany - the drug situation, and also reveals the reasons for the Nazi's failure from another perspective, providing readers with a highly readable academic monograph for a more comprehensive understanding of Nazi Germany.
