Nazi Women: The Attraction of Evil

Bag om Nazi Women: The Attraction of Evil

The Nazis believed their mission was to 'masculinize' life in Germany. Hermann Goering told women, 'Take a pot, a dustpan and a broom, and marry a man, ' but many still became active participants in the regime. By 1944, 40% of the Gestapo was staffed by women. Paul Roland gives a shocking account of these characters, including: - Prison guard Irma Grese who would starve her dogs and release them on prisoners. - Nurse Pauline Kneissler who worked in the euthanasia programme that murdered over 5,000 mentally disabled children. >Whether the victims or perpetrators of violence, women's part in the Nazi regime is often overlooked. Including chilling photographs of those involved, this book explores forgotten stories of these women - in particular those who sought personal power and influence amid the state-sanctioned cruelty of the Third Reich.
