Though three of his four grandparents were from America and the first language he learned at home was English, Baldur von Schirach became one of the Third Reich’s most influential individuals. He joined the Nazi Party as early as 1925 at the age of eighteen and three years later became a member of its National Leadership. He also married Henriette, the daughter of Hitler’s personal photographer, Heinrich Hoffmann. Von Schirach continued to rise through the ranks of the Nazi Party, reaching the rank of SA-Gruppenführer. It was as the leader of the Hitler Youth organization, however, for which von Schirach is best remembered, becoming Reichsführer of the Hitler Youth on 16 June 1932, and the following year was given responsibility for all youth organizations in Germany. He also became a member of the Reichstag as a representative of the Party. Despite his influential position, he was called up for military service and served in the French campaign of 1940. Following this he became Reich Governor and the Nazi’s Gauleiter Reichsstatthalter in Vienna – powerful positions he retained until the final collapse of the Third Reich in May 1945. His responsibilities as Gauleiter and Reichsstatthalter included overseeing the deportation of Vienna’s Jews to ghettos and concentration camps in occupied Poland. Though a confirmed anti-Semite, later in the war he pleaded for a moderate treatment of the eastern European peoples and criticized the conditions in which Jews were being deported. This caused a breach with Hitler and the Nazi leadership, though he managed to retain his position in Vienna. Following his capture by US troops, von Schirach was among the major war criminals put on trial at Nuremburg. Found guilty of crimes against humanity on 1 October 1946, von Schirach was sentenced to twenty years imprisonment. He served out his time in the company of Rudolf Hess and Albert Speer in Spandau prison. He admitted his crimes and his role in the deportations and in his autobiography, I Believed in Hitler, he explained how he was drawn into the world of the Nazis. He also said that his aim was destroy any belief in the rebirth of Nazism as well as blaming himself for not having done more to prevent the concentration camps. This detailed and balanced analysis of Baldur von Schirach reveals the true and ambivalent nature of a complex and fascinating individual who played a key role in the events leading up to, and during, the Second World War.

In modern times, the recruitment of children into a political organization and ideology reached its boldest embodiment in the Hitler Youth, founded in 1933 soon after the Nazi Party assumed power in Germany. Determining that by age ten children’s minds could be turned from play to politics, the regime inducted nearly all German juveniles between the ages of ten and eighteen into its state-run organization. The result was a potent tool for bending young minds and hearts to the will of Adolf Hitler. Baldur von Schirach headed a strict chain of command whose goal was to shift the adolescents’ sense of obedience from home and school to the racially defined Volk and the Third Reich. Luring boys and girls into Hitler Youth ranks by offering them status, uniforms, and weekend hikes, the Nazis turned campgrounds into premilitary training sites, air guns into machine guns, sing-alongs into marching drills, instruction into indoctrination, and children into Nazis. A few resisted for personal or political reasons, but the overwhelming majority enlisted. Drawing on original reports, letters, diaries, and memoirs, Michael H. Kater traces the history of the Hitler Youth, examining the means, degree, and impact of conversion, and the subsequent fate of young recruits. Millions of Hitler Youth joined the armed forces; thousands gleefully participated in the subjugation of foreign peoples and the obliteration of “racial aliens.” Although young, they committed crimes against humanity for which they cannot escape judgment. Their story stands as a harsh reminder of the moral bankruptcy of regimes that make children complicit in crimes of the state.

This book examines three exhibitions of contemporary art held at the Vienna Künstlerhaus during the period of National Socialist rule and shows how each attempted to culturally erase elements anathema to Nazi ideology: the City, the Jewess and fin-de-siècle Vienna. Each of the exhibits was large scale and ambitious, part of a broader attempt to situate Vienna as the cultural capital of the Reich, and each aimed to reshape cultural memory and rewrite history. Applying illuminating theories on memory studies, collective and public memory, and notions of "memoricide," this is the first book in English to focus on visual culture in the period when Austria was erased as a nation and incorporated into the Third Reich as "Ostmark." The organization, content and publications surrounding these three exhibits are explored in depth and set against the larger political changes and dangerous ideologies they reflect. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, museum studies, cultural history, memory studies, art and politics and Holocaust studies.

Germany in the early 1930s is falling apart. The population is disillusioned, poverty is spreading, and unemployment is everywhere. Many Germans see Adolf Hitler as the only man who can pull the country out of crisis. The Nazi leader’s promise of bread and work for the people makes him popular, and his demands for revenge for the humiliating peace terms after World War I find a sympathetic audience. Soon after the Nazis first seize power, Hitler begins an unprecedented transformation of society: the unemployed are sent to build roads, young folk are forced into the Hitler Youth and women are rewarded for giving birth to many purebred children. The young German democracy that brought the Nazi party to the fore will be swept aside. Hitler establishes himself as dictator and commander of the German army, which quickly steps up to become a modern war machine. World History invites you on a fascinating journey to bygone eras, allowing you to explore the greatest events in history. Take a trip back in time - to the frontlines of World War 2, to the Viking raids, and the religious rituals of ancient Egypt. World History is for everyone who would like to know more about the exciting and dramatic events of the past.

A biography of the organizer and leader of the Hitler Youth and, from 1940 to the end of the war, Nazi Gauleiter and Reichsstatthalter of Vienna. Schirach was an antisemite, but he apparently took no active part in the Holocaust or other Nazi atrocities. At the Nuremberg Trials, and later in conversation with the author, he claimed not to have known about them. The Nuremberg tribunal could find no evidence of his complicity in the Holocaust. The Hitler Youth received instruction in racist doctrine and antisemitism, but Schirach prevented the distribution in the organization of "Der Stürmer", and when he heard of the plans for "Kristallnacht" he ordered the Hitler Youth not to take part. He approved the deportation of Viennese Jews and defended it in a virulently antisemitic speech in September 1942, but later asserted that he thought the Jews were merely to be resettled. However, it is known that in 1942-43 he heard of the mass killing of Jews. He explained that he did not dare to protest.

The first-ever translation of the 1938 book containing one hundred ultra-rare (and many never-before seen) images from official NSDAP photographer Heinrich Hofffmann, with a preface and captions written by Hitler Youth leader Baldur von Shirach. Covering the period from Hitler's World War I service through to 1932, these photographs and captions show Hitler's personal side, quite separate from the carefully-crafted public image. Most of the images are informal, and include rare pictures of Hitler with his army frontline music group, his sister, friends, supporters' children, and his three dogs at home. Other images show Hitler's army dog tags, his favorite dog that was poisoned by communists, and Hitler asleep in his car travelling between rallies, having informal lunches with friends, laughing at newspaper reports of his "Jewish girlfriend," carrying his own chairs, being a best man at a wedding, overseeing building work at the Brown House in Munich, and the moment when he received the telephone call informing him he had at last been made a German citizen. As the original German description read: "Countless millions of followers of Hitler will get an insight into the personal life of the Führer, and will learn more about his widespread interests. The illustrations shown in the work are largely unknown. The photographer Heinrich Hoffmann, who has been living in Hitler's closest surroundings for ten years, has selected them from many thousands of photographs and thus created a unique picture work that can claim to be documentary truth. It will be particularly welcome as an illustrative addition to Hitler's Mein Kampf." This is not a "photocopy" but a perfect digital copy made from a German-language original, reproduced to the highest quality possible.
