What could have led them to commit such atrocities in the name of the Fuhrer?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  In 1945, as the Nazi regime collapsed, its remaining leaders were imprisoned and interrogated for months before the Nuremberg Trials. In this searing work Richard Overy reveals the original transcripts of these little-known interviews with key Nazis: the brutal and unrepentant Goering, the selective amnesiac Hess, the deliberately evasive Ribbentrop, the courteous Speer and the suicidal Ley. For the first time, they were forced to examine their actions and speak about the unspeakable. The result is an unprecedented and shocking insight into Hitler''s henchmen.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  ''A chilling glimpse into the minds of Hitler''s chief lieutenants''\u003cbr\u003e  J.G.
