Mothers in the Fatherland

From extensive research, including a remarkable interview with the unrepentant chief of Hitlere(tm)s Womene(tm)s Bureau, this book traces the roles played by women e as followers, victims and resisters e in the rise of Nazism. Originally publishing in 1987, it is an important contribution to the understanding of womene(tm)s status, culpability, resistance and victimisation at all levels of German society, and a record of astonishing ironies and paradoxical morality, of compromise and courage, of submission and survival.
