Hitler's circle formed an exclusive, hermetic society. Very little information penetrated the thick wall of censorship erected by Dr. Joseph Goebbels. Many women in German high society adored Hitler and some, like film-maker Leni Riefenstahl, who fueled Hitler's propaganda machine, helped him achieve political power. How did the women of the National Socialist elite live? What was their official role, their unofficial one? What thoughts and feelings did these women have? Anna Maria Sigmund attempts to answer these questions in a ground-breaking work that examines the official Nazi portrayal of women in the Third Reich, and the real lives of eight women who were a part of the Nazi regime or played a role in its ascendency. - Jacket flap.
