New York Daily News - - Perhaps the most terrifying embodiment of a governments disregard for the value of human life, the Gestapo, Nazi Germanys secret police force, was a veritable killing machine. It was the iron fist that Hitler and his henchmen used to strangle dissent and smash resistance to his rule. In The Gestapo, Jacques Delarue unflinchingly probes the organisations history, and explains how such a horrific institution could come into being, who was behind it, what they did and why. - - Drawing upon interviews with ex-Gestapo agents and the organisations published and unpublished archives, Delarue delivers a complex history of the brutally efficient force whose work included murdering student resisters, soliciting denunciations of political criminals, establishing Aryan eugenic unions and running concentration camps. The Gestapo and its leaders
Himmler, Barbie, Eichmann, Heydrich, Mller, and others
devised and implemented some of the most abhorrent torture and extermination techniques the world has ever seen. This book offers a clear view of its crimes against humanity. -
