The Hidden Nazi: The Untold Story of America's Deal with the Devil: World War II Collection

Autor Dean Reuter, Colm Lowery, Keith Chester
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 24 noi 2021
He's the Worst Nazi War Criminal You've Never Heard Of

He was among the worst of the Nazis. He was responsible for the construction of Hitler’s slave labor sites and concentration camps. He personally altered the design of Auschwitz to increase crowding, ensuring that epidemic diseases would complement the work of the gas chambers. At the end of the war he had even more power than SS chief Heinrich Himmler.

Yet few today know the name of General Hans Kammler.

Why has the world forgotten this monster? Kammler was declared dead after the war. But the aide who testified to Kammler’s supposed “suicide” never produced the general’s dog tags or any other proof of death.

Dean Reuter, Colm Lowery, and Keith Chester have spent decades on the trail of the elusive Kammler. The Hidden Nazi is true history more harrowing—and shocking—than the most thrilling fiction.

Recenzii

"It’s strange that no one has yet written a biography of SS General Hans Kammler, one of the brutal masterminds of the German military-industrial complex and the Holocaust.  But when you read The Hidden Nazi you will realize that until now no one had the knowledge, persistence, and sheer nerve that the authors brought to the job of unlocking the multiple mysteries surrounding this evil genius of the Third Reich. It’s a story where Schindler’s List meets Doctor Strangelove.  Read it, be amazed and shocked by what Kammler did,  and outraged by how he escaped final justice; but above all read The Hidden Nazi."
“Werner von Braun called him ‘the greatest rogue and adventurer I have ever seen.’   Albert Speer damned him as ‘one of Himmler’s most brutal and most ruthless henchmen.’  He engineered the Holocaust, built theconcentration camps, and perfected the gas chambers and crematoria.  He pioneered slave labor and masterminded rocket, fighter jet, and secret wonder-weapon production.  And at the end of World War II he vanished without a trace. Enigmatic SS General Hans Kammler is the most diabolic Nazi you’ve never heard of. Dean Reuter takes readers on a gripping, exciting, and suspenseful hunt in search of the mysterious war criminal.   The Hidden Nazi is a fascinating forensic detective story that reads like a great crime thriller. Did Kammler fake his death and survive the war? How did he escape justice? Did America strike a deal with the Devil in exchange for his secrets? Splendidly written with verve and expertise, The Hidden Nazi is storytelling at its best. Dean Reuter and his co-authors combine superb narrative history with a riveting personal memoir of the harrowing psychological journey into Hans Kammler’s heart of darkness.”
“Justice delayed is justice denied? Not in this case. At long last, and at the skillful hands of Dean Reuter, aparticularly nasty Nazi has been brought before the bar of history for a lasting sort of justice—the measured but stern judgment of a meticulous historian.”
The Hidden Nazi is a revelation: a spellbinding, at times harrowing new history of an epic we thought had been covered from every angle, trained on as ingenious and monstrous a villain as total, global war could produce — Hans Kammler. With the invaluable scholarship and perseverance of his colleagues Colm Lowery and Keith Chester, Dean Reuter delivers a riveting mix of first-person accounts and expert analysis, from the excruciating depths of the Nazi slave and death camps to the thrilling heights and annihilative aspirations of Nazi rocket science. And of course, the gripping, morally vexing mystery: to deal or not to deal with the devil who has something invaluable to trade?”
“Reuter, Lowery and Chester probe one of the enduring mysteries of World War II, the extent to which theUnited States absorbed and sought to utilize Nazi scientists in the race to develop the atom bomb. This is ariveting look into the awful tradeoff between pragmatism and justice.”
The Hidden Nazi by Dean Reuter is a stunning achievement. This tightly drawn portrait of SS General Hans Kammler takes the reader from his personal life as recalled in interviews with his son through his notorious work supervising construction of underground factories like Mittelwerk-Dora, where Wernher von Braun’s V-2 rockets were built, and at Auschwitz where this ruthless Nazi perfected the gas chambers. Throughout the book Reuter tells a riveting tale of horror, ending with Kammler’s escape from justice. But where to? Finally, I must complement the researchers Colm Lowery and Keith Chester for collecting a massive treasure trove of documents that made this excellent book possible.”
The Hidden Nazi is a must read, especially in this age of increasing Holocaust denial and minimization. Thehorrors of the Holocaust and their primary perpetrators must be documented so that future generations will have the evidence necessary to defend the truth.”
“Remarkable. For sheer, dogged persistence alone, the authors of this extraordinary investigation deserve widespread recognition. They have shone a powerful and bright light on what may prove to be one of the last great secrets of the war.”
