THIS IS GERMANY

  [This Is Germany]
[[link removed]]
This is Germany: The country, the people and the Third Reich system of
life and government, described from personal experience and with the
assistance of many of the leaders of both thought and action in the
New Germany. By Charles W. Domville-Fife, Foreword by Lord
Queensborough.

A sweeping snapshot of Germany in 1938, written by one of Britain’s
most prolific military and travel writers, and introduced by the then
President of the British Conservative Party.  It provides one of the
most accurate English-language overviews of all aspects of Hitler’s
Germany ever written, but was completely suppressed after the outbreak
of the Second World War in the same year that it was published.

With 18 chapters dealing with every possible aspect of German life,
from tourist attractions to the inner workings of the “Strength
through Joy” program, this work boasts 55 unique photographs
designed to illustrate the author’s always enthralling account.

Included in the overview are two chapters dealing with the financial
and economic systems employed by the Third Reich which allowed it to
overcome the crushing unemployment problem and national shortages
which brought the country to ruin prior to 1933. These chapters—and
the revelations therein—were of particular interest to the author
and his circle, and provide dramatic insights into price control,
worker-employer relations, public building programs, and much more.

In addition, this book delves deeply into how the totalitarian state
was set up, and shows how the authoritarian nature of that state
carried with it the notion of absolute responsibility—for better or
worse, unlike democracies where no-one is ever personally held
accountable for governmental failures.

Other aspects of German life discussed include: agricultural policies
and food self-sufficiency, the place of women in the Reich, the Reich
Labour Service for men and women, the youth movements and how youth
delinquency was all but eradicated, policies designed to boost
population growth and birth rates, taxation policies, educational
systems, land reclamation projects, and the futuristic building plans
for Germany’s major cities.

This new edition is the first republication of this book since
1939—and the reader will soon find out why it was suppressed. An
invaluable work for anyone wanting to understand how peacetime
Hitlerian Germany operated.

About the author: Charles William Domville-Fife (1886-1960) was a
prolific British military and travel writer. Serving in the Royal Navy
during World War I and obtaining the rank of Lieutenant in the Royal
Naval Volunteer Reserve (RNVR), Domville-Fife lectured at the H.M.
School of Submarine Mining in Plymouth. There he wrote a number of
highly successful works on submarine warfare, and thereafter retired
to devote himself full time to travel writing.

Lord Queensborough, born Almeric Hugh Paget, 1st Baron Queenborough,
GBE (1861– ) was a British industrialist and Conservative Party
politician. A staunch anti-Communist, he twice held the office of
President of the National Union of Conservative and Unionist
Associations—the precursor to the present-day British Conservative
Party conference committee, from 1928–29 and 1940–41.
