The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by journalist William L. Shirer was the first definitive history of Nazi Germany in English.
The book is based largely on the captured documents of the Third Reich, including the diaries of propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels and General Franz Halder. Additional major sources include testimony and evidence from the Nuremberg trials, British Foreign Office reports, and the detailed diary of Ciano, Mussolini's son-in-law and Italian Foreign Minister. Other sources include confidential speeches, conference reports, taped transcripts of telephone conversations, as well as Shirer's personal recollections during the six years he reported on the Third Reich as a journalist.
At the time the book was written, only a part of the diaries of Goebbels was known. Other documents have been discovered and many documents have since become available from Russia after the fall of the Soviet Union.
The book was adapted into a television program for the ABC network in 1966. It was one of the first programs to be marketed as a miniseries.

评分很多人喜欢将过去的二十世纪称之为“虐杀的世纪”,也有人更乐意叫它“革命与战争”的世纪。无论称呼如何,这个世纪死了很多人,打了很多仗,许多人为了让后世的历史学家大跌眼镜的理由被从肉体上消灭的确是一个事实。 但尽管如此,当后代的历史学家们回顾这一百年的人类历史...
评分首先,这本书应当是喜欢研究二战和第三帝国的人的必读书。 本书的特点在于: (1)主要的内容集中于战前的历史进程,主要是希特勒上台前后德国的政治情况以及上台后德国社会的一些变化,介绍的比较详细。但作者离开德国后的部分感觉以道听途说居多。不是说就是假的,但是很多地...
