    • 2022

      Bogato ilustrowana opowieść o ludziach odpowiedzialnych za rozwój infrastruktury i przemysłu zbrojeniowego Trzeciej Rzeszy. Pokazuje, jak zaplecze technologiczne – na równi ze zdyscyplinowaną i znakomicie wyposażoną armią – zapewniło Hitlerowi wieloletnią dominację na arenie międzynarodowej. Bohaterowie książki, Fritz Todt i Albert Speer, kolejni ministrowie uzbrojenia i amunicji Trzeciej Rzeszy, wiedzieli, że współczesna wojna toczy się nie tylko na polach bitew i w kwaterach dowódców. Zapotrzebowanie na fabryki zaopatrujące walczących w broń, autostrady pozwalające na szybkie dotarcie do celu, fortyfikacje i schrony sprawiło, że rola inżynierów i architektów była kluczowa, a rozwiązania technologiczne często decydowały o zwycięstwie lub porażce. Talent niemieckich technokratów nie tylko wspierał podboje Hitlera, ale także pozwolił przetrwać jego reżimowi dłużej, niż się spodziewano. Inżynierowie Hitlera to fascynująca historia rywalizacji technologicznej, w której prześcigali się walczący po obu stronach frontu. Blaine Taylor był dziennikarzem, weteranem wojny w Wietnamie i rzecznikiem prasowym amerykańskiego Kongresu. Przez lata zajmował się badaniami nad historią nazistowskich Niemiec, a na koncie ma ponad dwadzieścia książek na ten temat.

      In March 1935, Goering unveiled to the world his formerly "black, ' secret German Air Force, the later dreaded Luftwaffe. That April, he married his second wife, a popular German stage actress, and in May solidified Germany's pre-1939 surprisingly good relations with neighboring Poland. In March 1936, the Luftwaffe took part in the peaceful occupation of the formerly French-occupied Rhineland, and by the end of the year, Goering was also the recognized economic dictator of the Third Reich via heading the Nazi Four Year Plan. A State Visit to Rome in January 1937 made him a main player regarding the future Reich alliance with Fascist Italy and that November, he hosted Europe's largest hunting exposition of 50 years at Berlin. Overshadowing all of this, however, was the top-secret Hossbach war conference, at which Hitler announced his intention go to war by 1943 in order to seize Russian territory for an expanded German empire in the east. In all of the above, Goering was the main player, second only to Hitler, especially regarding the economy and the air force
