{"product_id":"2198446","title":"Albert Speer: His Battle with Truth","description":"xiv, 757 pp. \"A rich and revelatory biography--the product of twelve years' work--of the German architect who became perhaps the most powerful of all Hitler's cohorts, closest to the Fuhrer and, by 1942, in effect over-lord of Hitler's entire war economy. Sereny's reconsideration of this brilliant, paradoxical figure sheds new light on the dark history of Nazi Germany, in which he played a role both crucial and enigmatic. Gitta Sereny first saw Albert Speer on trial at Nuremberg. Over the last years of his life she came to know him--through hundreds of hours of conversations--as no other biographer has known a Nazi leader. She interviewed as well the people around him--the celebrated, the notorious and the ordinary. Speer gave Sereny, for her use, a number of unpublished manuscripts, and after his death she obtained access to many of his papers. Out of her probings a huge, and hugely alive, portrait emerges.\"\r\n\r\n","brand":"Knopf","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12595536134214,"sku":"2198446","price":7.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1232\/9510\/products\/2198446.jpg?v=1571422785","url":"https:\/\/ym-demo.myshopify.com\/products\/2198446","provider":"Yesterday's Muse","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
