Description


The Nazis presented themselves as warriors against moral degeneracy. Yet, as Norman Ohler's reveals, the entire Third Reich was permeated with drugs: cocaine, heroin, morphine and, most of all, methamphetamines, or crystal meth, used by everyone from factory workers to housewives, and crucial to troops' resilience - even partly explaining German victory in 1940.
Det Tredje Rige var gennemsyret af stoffer på alle niveauer. Forfatteren dokumenterer, hvordan der både i civilsamfundet, blandt soldaterne på slagmarken og hos Hitler forekom et massemisbrug, der påvirkede krigens forløb.
