Requiem for a German Past by University Of Wisconsin Press
Jurgen Herbst's account of growing up in Nazi Germany from 1928 to 1948 is an understated tale of moral awakening. He illustrates how easy it was for a German boy without strong convictions or religious hatred to climb into a position of leadership in the Nazi Jungvolk - indeed, how difficult it would have been for him not to end up in such a place. He offers a unique perspective on everyday life in extreme circumstances.
