| Sumario: | Robert Dallek exposes the dark underbelly of 1930s Germany and explores the terrible burden of those who realized the horror that was to come. William Dodd was the U.S. Ambassador to Germany from 1933 to 1937, arriving in Berlin with his wife and daughter just as Adolf Hitler assumed the chancellorship. An unlikely candidate for the job Dodd quickly came to realise that the situation in Germany was far grimmer than was understood in America. Finding unwilling listeners back in the U.S., Dodd clashed repeatedly with the State Department, as well as the Nazi government, during his time as ambassador. |
