Heinrich Himmler: The Sinister Life of the Head of the SS and Gestapo

Focusing on Heinrich Himmler's transformation from an ordinary boy to a key figure in the Nazi regime, the authors explore his role as the head of the SS and his supervision of mass exterminations. The narrative reveals his obsessive interests in herbalism, astrology, and homeopathy, which later evolved into a dangerous commitment to racial purity and Aryan superiority. Manvell and Fraenkel provide an in-depth look at the complexities and motivations behind one of history's most notorious leaders.
