Germany and the Origins of the Second World War by Jonathan Wright
Jonathan Wright explores the events, discusses rival interpretations and places the policies of Hitler in the context of Germany as a whole. Wright explains that support rose and fell, but, nevertheless, by December 1941 Hitler had succeeded in carrying Germany into a world war for racial empire.
'Jonathan Wright has produced the incisive Germany and the Origins of the Second World War - Ian Kershaw, The Guardian 'This book is packed with conceptual ideas, throwing up possible hypotheses, leaving them hanging then seeing where they fit with other ones: 21 pages of footnotes and a 200 book bibliography show the depth of referencing that the author has gone through to establish his views' - Andrew Hunt, History Teaching Review 'Jonathan Wright's book is well-researched, well-structured, and well-written...This reader should be in the hands of every student who wants to understand Germany's complicated history between 1930 and 1945.' - Jurgen Forster, German Historical Institute Bulletin 'Wright has reworked this grim passage of European history with verve and assurace to the benefit, surely, of a large readership.' - Conan Fischer, English Historical Review
JONATHAN WRIGHT is Professor of International Relations and a tutorial Fellow at Christ Church, University of Oxford, UK.
