Re: World War II
Tabby, a critical reason, though not the only one, Hitler came to power were the draconian measures of the Treaty of Versailles. Following WW1 the Treaty of Versailles was signed and Germany was made to pay enormous sums to the Allies. This brought about the loss of German territories, massive employment, crippling inflation and widespread hunger. The inflation was so great that employees had to be paid 3 times /day. The working man quickly gave his pay to his wife and she immediately ran to the store to buy food staples.Re: World War II

Re: World War II
My favourite is still "The World At War" (26 episodes) but in recent years "Spitfire Women" and "Churchill's Bodyguard" (13 episodes) are amongst documentaries which have revealed other, less well-known, WWII experiences.Re: World War II
That set of DVDs might be a good choice for someone not so familiar with the subject. It would be interesting to know who the authors are.
