Présentation de l'éditeur
In 1926, at the age of twenty, a trainee dentist called Bruno Langbehn joined the Nazi party. Growing up in a Germany that was impoverished and humiliated by the defeat of the First World War, and surrounded by a fiercely military environment, Bruno was one of the first young men to sign up. And as the party rose to power, he was there every step of the way. Eventually his loyalty was rewarded with a high-ranking position in Hitler's dreaded SS, the elite security service charged with sending Germany's 'racially impure' to the death camps. For fifty years after the end of the Second World War, his family kept this horrifying secret until his British grandson, Martin Davidson, uncovered the truth. Drawing on an astonishing cache of personal documents, Davidson retraces Bruno's journey from disillusioned adolescent to SS Officer to mysterious grandfather. In this extraordinary account he tries to understand how Langbehn and millions of others like him were seduced by Hitler's regime, and attempts to come to terms with this devastating revelation.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. IN 1926, AT THE AGE OF TWENTY, A TRAINEE DENTIST CALLED BRUNO LANGBEHN JOINED THE NAZI PARTY. EIGHTY YEARS LATER, HIS BRITISH GRANDSON BEGAN A QUEST . . . TO DISCOVER THE TRUTH.'One of the most unsettling books to have been written about the Third Reich not because of the brutality with which it engages but because of the story of the hatching of great wickedness in a most prosaic life. If there ever was a personification of the banality of evil, it is Martin Davidson's Grandpa Bruno. It is two stories in one - both riveting - that of the dentist's transformation into unswerving SS officer and of the grandson's appalled discovery. Woven together they make for unforgettable, haunting reading'Simon Schama'Absorbing, highly readable and painstakingly researched'Niall Ferguson'Riveting'The Times'Fascinating, scrupulously researched, compelling'Sunday Times'Brave, engrossing, shocking'Herald'Fascinating, compelling, highly recommended'Evening Standard Drawing on a cache of personal documents, the author retraces Bruno Langbehn's journey from disillusioned adolescent to SS Officer to mysterious grandfather.
