Review of Hitler’s Charisma: Leading Millions into the Abyss by Laurence Rees
Central European Papers, Vol.1(1), pp.88-90
2013
Abstract
Excerpt-Rees’s engaging style of writing makes “Hitler’s Charisma” a very readable volume, one of the traits of a popular history. His use of Weber’s categories to explain charisma and his extensive sources combine to give the work the character of an academic monograph that presents a viable explanation of how Hitler built and maintained such a dedicated following. The shortcomings in the work do little to detract from the important place it holds in the body of literature devoted to understanding Hitler and the Third Reich.
