Nazi Women

Description

After the failure of the Weimar Republic, the Nazis believed their mission was to ‘masculinize’ life in Germany. Hermann Goering told women, “Take a pot, a dustpan and a broom, and marry a man,” but many became active Nazis, helping to spread wide the net of evil.

From the abductions of women for the Lebensborn Aryan breeding programme to the brothels of the Sicherheitsdienst, this book covers the lives of women in the Third Reich, particularly those who saw opportunity and excitement in embroiling themselves in the chaos and death visited upon Europe by the Nazis.
