In the Beginning...

I have taken a number of angles to start researching into this topic. I have started with a book called Hitler and Nazism (Dick Geary), which is short and sweet. I am also awaiting delivery of World War II for Dummies, which apparently provides a good breakdown of useful information, and Access to History: Weimar and the Rise of Nazi Germany 1918-1933 (Geoff Layton). I have also purchased an A-Level revision guide which outlines relevant information.

Although I have not yet managed much solid reading yet, I hope I have started to lay the foundations, and when I feel more comfortable around this subject I will start looking at suitable internet material which I expect is abundant.

Other than this I have started to look at the info pack activities and I am dipping into some relevant teaching literature.

My Blog

This is my blog. This is going to be focused on (to begin with at least) National Socialism - Weimar Germany, the rise of Hitler & the Nazis, and Nazi Germany to 1945.
