Industry Reviews

"This valuable study reveals the ideological dimensions of Hitler's five-week conquest of Poland in September 1939. Rossino argues that 'despite its brevity, the historical importance of the Polish campaign cannot be overestimated.' . . . With clear, vigorous prose and a significant thesis, Rossino's study gives us a new perspective on the German invasion of Poland as a 'dress rehearsal' for yet greater, perfected barbarities to come."
-Central European History

"An invaluable introduction to a highly significant phase in National Socialist Germany's prosecution of its ideological policies during the Second World War. Specialists and novices alike will profit greatly from Rossino's work."
-Journal of Modern History
