Title: stop this diseased adulation
Review: Reviewer is fed up with the adulation heaped on WW2 Nazis. They fought in the worst cause in modern history (with the Confederates of the American Civil War a close second), slaughtered scores of millions of people and should all have been hanged. The overwhelming majority of WW2 books are written from the pro-Nazi point of view, fueled by the Cold War hysteria.A fine example of instant whitewash is Werner Von Braun: from SS Major to icon of NASA. Never mind the 10,000 defenseless civilians his rockets killed, or even worse, 10,000 more who died in slave camps to build his rockets.There was nothing noble or partiotic about such beasts in human form.The only value of the memoirs of these vicious thugs is for us to identify them much quicker before the next generation rises up again. Would you prefer that the Nazis had won? We are well rid of them. If you want to read more serious WW2 history from military analyst point of view, try David Glantz, many titles.
