Koch, born in Munich, brings a personal perspective of a brief membership in the Hitler Youth to bear on the rise and fall of this sometimes tragic, oftem pathetic, organization. By diligent use of Nazi Party and Hitler Youth archives, Koch has fashioned the best treatment of the Hitler Youth phenomenon yet published in English.
