In 2013, after years of exhaustive search, the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum received more than four hundred pages of diary notes written by one of the most prominent Nazis, chief ideologue and Reich minister for the occupied Soviet territories Alfred Rosenberg. These previously inaccessible sources throw new light on the thoughts and actions of the leading men around Hitler. By combining Rosenberg's diary notes with additional key documents and in-depth analysis, this book shows Rosenberg's crucial role in the Nazi regime's passing of the threshold from the persecution of Jews to their annihilation. | The Political Diary of Alfred Rosenberg and the Onset of the Holocaust by Jürgen Matthäus, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
