In this thoroughly researched and elegantly written book, Frank
McDonough confronts decades of myth-making to uncover the complex
realities of Hitler's notorious secret police. The Gestapo is as
surprising as it is illuminating, and it sets a new standard for
this vitally important subject.” Roger Moorhouse, best-selling
author of Berlin at War
A new look at Hitler's secret state police as a smaller crack
force than is widely known . . . a nuanced study of the Geheime
Staatspolizei, or Gestapo . . . A well-researched book that
clarifies many misconceptions"—Kirkus
