Formerly Hitler's architect, Albert Speer became the undisputed master of the German war machine and was responsible for conscripted foreign labour in the Third Reich. Sentenced at Nuremberg after pleading guilty - the only defendant to do so - he began to keep this secret diary (much of it written on toilet paper) to save himself from being tormented by his demons. Upon his release, after twenty years of imprisonment, at the age of 60 he found 25,000 of the smuggled pages waiting for him. From that he shaped this book - a deeply moving human document, an insight into power bearers who have lost their power, and one of the most convincingly honest accounts of the Nazi era.

Albert Speer was unique in the Third Reich. An intellectual architect, he was befriended by Hitler in 1933 and for the next 12 years they maintained one of the most powerful and extraordinary relationships in the Nazi hierarchy. In 1942 Speer was appointed Armaments Minister and became second only to Hitler himself as a power on the home front. But in 1945, Speer defied Hitler's scorched earth policy and began to plan his assassination. At Nuremberg he was sentenced to 20 years in prison.

Softcover. Condición: Very Good. No Jacket. He served as Hitler's architect, the undisputed master of the German war machine, and the one responsible for conscripted foreign labor in the Third Reich. And, when Albert Speer was captured and sentenced at Nuremberg--after becoming the only defendant to plead guilty--he started keeping this secret diary, much of it on toilet paper. After 20 years of imprisonment, he found 25,000 of the smuggled pages waiting for him, and from those entries he shaped this deeply powerful document. "Albert Speer's book is a deeply moving document. It is also of extraordinary political and psychological interest.a must for anyone interested in psychological motivation of political action and the problem of guilt and repentance. But, beyond this it is so fascinatingly written that I could not put it down before I finished it." --Erich Fromm. Solid binding.
