Every aspect of society is covered, from the treatment of women, to the economic implications of the appoinment of Goering and sacking of Schacht, and also the horrifying implications of "The Final Solution" for those races viewed as "inferior" by the Nazis.
All coverage is particularly pleasing to read, being both enlightening and powerful; clearly being backed up with facts and legitimate sources.
