Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. An astonishing journey into the heart of Nazi evil; a portrait of one of the darkest figures of Hitler's Nazi elite, the designer and executor of the Holocaust, chief of the Reich Main Security, including the Gestapo; interwoven with commentary by Reinhard Heydrich's wife, from the author's in-depth interviews.He was called the Hangman of the Gestapo, the "butcher of Prague," with a reputation as a ruthlessly efficient killer. He was the head of the SS, and the Gestapo, second in command to Heinrich Himmler. His orders set in motion the Kristallnacht pogrom of 1938 and, as the lead planner of Hitler's Final Solution, he chaired the Wannsee Conference, at which details of the murder of millions of Jews across Nazi-occupied Europe were toasted with cognac.In The Hangman and His Wife, Nancy Dougherty, and, following her death, Christopher Lehmann-Haupt, masterfully explore who Heydrich was and how he came to be, and how he came to do what he did. We see Heydrich from his rarefied musical family origins and his ugly-duckling childhood and adolescence, to his sudden flameout as a promising Naval officer (he was forced to resign his Naval commission after dishonoring the office corps by having sex with the unmarried daughter of a shipyard director and refusing to marry her). Dougherty writes of his seemingly hopeless job prospects as an untrained civilian during Germany's hyperinflation and unemployment, and his joining the Nazi party through the attraction to Nazism of his fiancee, Lina von Osten, and her father, along with the rumor shadowing him of a strain of Jewishness inherited from his father's side. And we follow Heydrich's meteoric rise through the Nazi high command-from SS major, to colonel to brigadier general, before he was thirty, deputy to Heinrich Himmler, expanding the SS, the Gestapo, and developing the Reich's plans for "the Jewish solution".And throughout, we hear the voice of Lina Heydrich, who was by his side until his death at the age of thirty-eight, living inside the Nazi inner circles as she waltzed with Rudolf Hess, feuded with Hermann G ring, and drank vintage wine with Albert Speer.

An astonishing journey into the heart of Nazi evil; a portrait of one of the darkest figures of Hitler's Nazi elite, the designer and executor of the Holocaust; interwoven with commentary by Reinhard Heydrich's wife, from the author's in-depth interviews. He was called "the Hangman" of the Gestapo, "the Butcher of Prague," with a reputation as a ruthless, efficient killer.

His orders set in motion the Kristallnacht pogrom of 1938 and, as the lead planner of Hitler's Final Solution, he chaired the Wannsee Conference, at which details of the murder of millions of Jews across Nazi-occupied Europe were toasted with cognac. In The Hangman and His Wife, Nancy Dougherty and, following her death, Christopher Lehmann-Haupt masterfully explore who Heydrich was and how he came to be, and how he came to do what he did. With his chiseled presence -- his blond hair (he was known as "the Blond Beast"), blue eyes, aquiline nose, and superior athletic skills (he was a near Olympic-level fencer) -- he was considered the physical embodiment of "the Aryan ideal." He was an able pilot, musically talented (he played the violin) with a photographic memory that labeled him, by his subordinates, a human filing cabinet, and a keen sense of German culture (his father was a composer and opera singer who studied with Richard Wagner's widow Cosima, at the Wagner Festival House in Bayreuth). We see Heydrich from his rarefied musical family origins and his ugly-duckling childhood and adolescence to his sudden flameout as a promising naval officer. Dougherty writes of his seemingly hopeless job prospects as an untrained civilian during Germany's hyperinflation and unemployment, and his joining the Nazi party through the attraction to Nazism of his fiancee, Lina von Osten, and her father, despite the rumor shadowing Heydrich of a strain of Jewishness inherited from his father's side.

And throughout, we hear the voice of Lina Heydrich, by her husband's side until his death at the age of thirty-eight, living inside the Nazi inner circles as she waltzed with Rudolf Hess, feuded with Hermann Goring, and drank vintage wine with Albert Speer. A powerful illuminating look into this monstrous period that convulsed the twentieth century and that still reverberates today, in our time. Alfred A.
