520 _a"How many people know that Hitler was writing an opera when he lived in Vienna or how he developed his antisemitic outlook while living there? Who has ever heard about Hitler's "second book," in which he revealed his major foreign policy plans, a manuscript that remained secret? How many realize that Hitler's regime planned on replacing Christianity with its own "religion" and substituting Mein Kampf for the Bible? Why did Hitler name his regime the "Third" Reich, and why did he choose the swastika as its logo? Why did the fine arts enjoy such an honored status during the Reich? What were the lesser-known original purposes of the concentration camp system established in Germany just weeks after Hitler seized power? All these questions and many more are addressed by a WWII tour director of thirty-five years in Exposing the Reich. The book illuminates how the devastation and tragedy of the war and the concurrent genocide could happen, examining the lethal blend of inciting hatred, ongoing indoctrination, justification for drastic action and the complete control of all media"--
