History

Women of the Third Reich

by Anna Maria Sigmund

  • How do we explain Magda Goebbels's complicity in the murder of her six children in 1945?
  • Or Carin and Emmy Goering's relations with their morphine-addicted husband?
  • Why did both Geli Raubal, Hitler’s niece, and his mistress Eva Braun attempt suicide?
  • What did Henriette von Schirach feel when her husband gave the order to deport 60,000 Jews from Vienna?

Anna Maria Sigmund attempts to answer these questions in a groundbreaking work that examines the official Nazi portrayal of women in the Third Reich, and the real lives of eight women who were a part of the Nazi regime or played a role in its ascendency.
