Alexander B. Rossino is a research historian at the Center for Advanced Holocaust Studies, U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum.
“This valuable study reveals the ideological dimensions of Hitler’s
five-week conquest of Poland in September 1939. Rossino argues that
‘despite its brevity, the historical importance of the Polish
campaign cannot be overestimated.’ . . . With clear, vigorous prose
and a significant thesis, Rossino’s study gives us a new
perspective on the German invasion of Poland as a ‘dress rehearsal’
for yet greater, perfected barbarities to come.”
—Central European History
“An invaluable introduction to a highly significant phase in
National Socialist Germany's prosecution of its ideological
policies during the Second World War. Specialists and novices alike
will profit greatly from Rossino’s work.”
