Book Reviews of Hitler Youth
Book Review: A WELL DOCUMENTED WORK - A GOOD ADDITION TO YOUR LIBRARY
Summary: 5 Stars
Mr. Kater has given us a well documented and well presented work, as the title would indicate, addressing the history and working of the now infamous Hitler Youth. The author has been rather meticulous in presenting his source data, something that is always appreciated, and more often than not these days, not at all well done. Thank you Mr. Kater for that. While the average reader (that includes me) may find most of this book to be a bit on the dry side, it never-the-less is certainly worth the extra effort it may cost to read through it. This is an area little understood, and surprisingly very little is known of it. It is an area we should all pay very close attention to. It would be a horrible shame to look into a mirror and find ourselves there one day. Back to the book though. I would have personally liked to have seen more first hand account from the rank and file, i.e. exmembers of this group. As it stands, the author has used memories of what I feel are too many academic types who have obviously spent years formulating their thoughts on the subject. I sort of wonder what the "grunt" that remained a "grunt" after the war, now feels. What are their thoughts and feelings? This is just me though, and perhaps that would add little to the subject. All in all I highly recommend this one, for both students of this era and for those simply interested.
