HITLER'S EMPIRE: NAZI RULE IN OCCUPIED EUROPE by Mark Mazower Hitler’s empire was the largest, most brutal and most ambitious reshaping of Europe in history. Inspired by the imperial legacy of those such as the British, the Third Reich cast its shadow from the Channel Islands to the Caucasus and ruled hundreds of millions.

From Hitler’s plans for vast motorways crossing an ethnically cleansed Russian steppe, to dreams of a German super-economy rivalling America’s, the author reveals the lethal fusion of mass murder, modern managerialism and colossal incompetence that underpinned the Nazi New Order. 2008, Allen Lane, Penguin Press, , 9780713996814,< F-01>,725pp Maps.
