For many people it is an enigma that the people of pre-war Germany under the leadership of Adolf Hitler should have been described as the happiest people in Europe. Almost everybody in the world has been told that the National Socialist government was wicked and oppressive. What is the truth of the matter? Perhaps this book will give its readers a glimpse, at least, of the truth. Certainly in 1933 Britain was one of the richest nations on earth with a huge Empire which contained all the foodstuffs and raw materials she could ever require. Yet at the same time the masses of her people lived in terrible slum housing and were malnourished from the lack of good food. What they needed more than anything else was the opportunity to work. To become ill was often a death sentence as there was no free health service. Farming and agriculture was depressed as few had the money to buy the food they needed and as a result crops were often ploughed back into the earth because those who were desperate for them had not the money with which to purchase them - and no opportunity to earn any money. The great capitalist crisis predicted by the Marxists has arrived. The system had failed and something needed to be done - as so clearly expressed by the then Prince of Wales. Germany by comparison had nothing. She had to pay huge financial reparations as a result of the First World War. She has been stripped of all her colonies and much of her territory in Europe had been passes to other nations such as Poland, France and Czechoslovakia. She had no gold reserves or any assets. What she did have was the will to change. She had an industrious population who were willing to work - when given the opportunity. Hitler gave the German people work and bread. To overcome all her problems she had to revert to a barter system to import whatever she could not produce at home. Many other great reforms were implemented. This was only possible by the great loyalty and confidence shown by the German folk towards their Leader. How was this loyalty gained?. This book goes a long way to explain how and why the German folk followed Hitler through thick and thin. In good times and bad - until the very end.
