-Descripcion Original:

The complete story of the Wannsee Conference, the meeting that paved the way for the Holocaust. On 20 January 1942, fifteen men arrived for a meeting in a luxurious villa on the shores of the Wannsee in the far-western outskirts of Berlin. They came at the invitation of Reinhard Heydrich and were almost all high-ranking Nazi Party, government, and SS officials. The exquisite position by the lake, the imposing driveway up to the villa, culminating in a generously sized roundabout in front of the house, the expansive, carefully landscaped park, the generous suite of rooms that opened on to the park and the lake, the three-level terrace that stretched the entire garden side of the house, and the winter garden with its marble fountain, all give todays visitor to the villa a good idea of its owners aspiration to build a sophisticated, almost palatial structure as a testament to his cultivation and worldly success. But the beauty of the situation stood in stark contrast to the purpose of the meeting to which the fifteen had come in January 1942: the Final Solution of the Jewish Question. According to the surviving records of the meeting, items on the agenda included the precise definition of exactly which group of people was to be affected, followed by a discussion of how upwards of eleven million people were to be deported and subjected to the toughest form of forced labour, and following on from this a discussion of how the survivors of this forced labour as well as those not capable of it were ultimately to be killed. The next item on the agenda was breakfast. Review ... its a difficult intellectual task to place Wannsee in the context of the overall development of the Holocaust. But Longerich... a world-renowned historian of the Nazi period a succeeds brilliantly... Skilfully translated from the original German by Lesley Sharpe and Jeremy Noakes, Longerichs Wannsee is a masterful crash-course on the decision-making process of the Holocaust. -- Laurence Rees, Daily Telegraph For Holocaust scholars, this a must-read. A well-researched study of the meeting that determined many major decisions about the Holocaust. -- Kirkus Reviews A brilliant interpretation of the Wannsee Conference, where Nazi leaders hatched one plan among others for the final solution. -- Robert Gellately About the Author Peter Longerich was until 2015 Professor of Modern German History at Royal Holloway University of London, and was a founder of the Colleges Holocaust Research Centre. An internationally renowned authority on the Nazis, his previous publications include Holocaust: The Nazi Murder and Persecution of the Jews (OUP 2010), Himmler (OUP 2012), and Hitler: A Life (OUP 2019).
