Aprašymas

The "frank, tragic, bittersweet, brutal, emotional" true story of the Third Reich's so-called she-devils of the League of German Girls (Gerry Van Tonder, author of Berlin Blockade).

They were ten to eighteen years old: German girls who volunteered for the war effort, and were indoctrinated into the Nazi youth organizations, Jungm�delbund and Bund Deutcscher M�del. At first they were schooled in a very narrow education: how to cook, clean, excel at sports, birth babies, and raise them. But when Hitler called, they were trained, militarized, and exploited for the ultimate goal of the Third Reich.

From the prosperous beginnings of the League of German Girls in 1933 to the cataclysmic defeat of 1945, Hitler's Girls is an insightful, disturbing, and revealing exploration of their specific roles: what was expected of them, and how they delivered, as defined by the Nazi state. Were they unwitting pawns or willing accessories to genocide? Historian Tim Heath searches for the answers and provides a definitive voice for this unique, and until now, unheard generation of German females.

"An essential account of the women who served Hitler during his years of power. Stunning photographs but a chilling narrative, in view of what they were required to do." --Books Monthly
