Format:Taschenbuch
Allen's book looks at the Nazis' rise to power through the lens of a small community in northern Germany. It describes the events leading up to the "takeover," and strives to explain why the Nazis were able to muster a high level of electoral support from the populace (61%). The book focuses heavily on the years before 1936; only one chapter is spent on discussing the events during the war. Generally, the book gives an interesting, refreshing perspective because this is the very first book to look at events from a local town's point of view.
Format:Taschenbuch
To those transfixed by the question of how the Nazi regime could have come to power, this book provides important clues. From 1928 to 1932 (approximately) the Nazi party electoral support grew from 5% to (approx.) 35%, enough to take control of the govenment. How could this have happened?
The author documents a primative marketing operation in which local Nazi party cells were required to raise their own revenue to pay for rental of halls, speakers and materials from higher levels, and direct dues to the central party. Faced with this task, local leaders were forced to pay careful attention to which subjects could fill a hall. One of the most important was anti-Communism. While not addressing this point coherently, the author provides many clues. The Liberal-Democratic party was, he says, forced to adopt revolutionary rhetoric in order to keep their membership from switching over to the real Communist party. He excuses them, saying that they never really meant any of it, but even assuming that is true, how was the average citizen to know that? The distance from Berlin to Moscow is about 1000 miles. Certainly, many Germans knew what was going on in the Soviet Union, the forceable seperation of anything of value from anyone who owned it and, perhaps incidently, the incarceration and murder of those owners. Sheridan cites accounts of Communist suppression of 'bourgeoisis politics' in Berlin and mentions that the Nazis were perceived as the only group able to 'do something' about the threat.
In sum, many Germans who supported the Nazi party did so in reponse to a direct and credible threat to their persons and their property.
Once the party took power it was no longer dependent on the ability of its local leaders to market the product, and it was able to reveal more of its true character, which is more familiar to us.
(Well, that's my conclusion. Sheridan is somewhat an apologist for the Liberal Democrats, but his position does not, in my opinion, seriously interfere with his presentation.)

Northeim and the Nazi Serzure of Power.
11. November 2005
Format:Taschenbuch
This is a good book to read in explaining how a democratic society became totalitarian in a span of six months. THe author Allen explains it using the small town of Northeim in Hanover. Northeim was a typical town that weathered the turmoil of the twenties and thirties. In 1932, 66% percent of the population voted for the Nazis. In 1933, the Nazis took over the town administration and basically wiped out any opposition by the SPD or Nationalists. This book explains how the Nazis did it on a small scale. Initial violence, concentration camps, firing of those who held opposite political views, and police raids silenced the opposition. They were so silenced that the town did not get back its freedom till 1945.
This is a fairly long book and centered more toward the academic audience. However it gives a great view of how Germany changed overnight when Hindenburg selected Hitler to be his Chancellor. Democracy died a quick death, even at the local level. A great read for those trying to understand the Nazis.

Entertaining and Explanitory History
14. Mai 2001
Format:Taschenbuch
By tracing the personal histories of the inhabitants of Nordheim and the practical workings of the local Nazi party structures, Allen illustrates the reasons for the sudden and powerful rise to power of the NSDAP in a way that is insightful and memorable. By using such details as excerpts from local newspapers, attendance records of Nazi and non-Nazi events, and memories of the still-living Nordheim residents, Allen is able to give an amazingly detailed and yet concise and easily readable view of the events and feelings that proceeded and stemmed from the Nazi rise to power.

Excellent example of how fragile democracy really is
7. Juli 2003
Format:Taschenbuch
Sheridan uses one community to explain how the Nazis (NSDAP) were able to gain power in an entire country within the democratic system. His exhaustive research of local archives shows how the NSDAP was able to set up an effiecient bureaucracy that simply outworked other parties and spread their message through 1000's of meetings. Extremists (from the right or left) don't always take power through military force - sometimes the open nature of democracies can be used to subvert them, as was the case in Germany in 1933. True, there are many other factors involved, but Sheridan's book provides clear examples that are often overlooked.
