Paul Donnelley, The Daily Express
[A] dramatic retelling... with tremendous verve... Fritzsches skill is in finding a wide enough cast of Germans to give a sense not just of the faithful, but of the sceptics, the disbelieving and the defeated... it is [Fitzsches] capacity for turning the lens back onto the viewer that makes his work so profound and so convincing.
Nicholas Stargardt, New York Times
Fritzsche draws on a vast amount of research to take us into the heart of a tumultuous 100 days, bringing in voices from all sides of the political spectrum. In the process, he turns what seems like an impossible sequence of events into one that seems both understandable and frighteningly repeatable.
History of War
Hitlers First One Hundred Days is gripping from the first lines. With elegance and deep knowledge, Peter Fitzsche tells the story of how Hitler and the Nazis consolidated their hold on power in the spring of 1933. Fritzsche knows this ground like few others, and his eye for the telling detail makes this book surprising at every turn, even as he shows how the story is chillingly relevant to our times.
