520 2  "This exploration of the private wartime diary of Alfred 
       Rosenberg--Hitler's 'chief philosopher' and architect of 
       Nazi ideology--interweaves the story of its recent 
       discovery with the revelation of its never-before-
       published contents, which are contextualized by the 
       authors: The result is a unprecedented, page-turning 
       narrative of the Nazi rise to power, the Holocaust, and 
       Hitler's post-invasion plans for Russia. A groundbreaking 
       historical contribution, The Devil's Diary is a chilling 
       window into the mind of Adolf Hitler's 'chief social 
       philosopher,' Alfred Rosenberg, who formulated some of the
       guiding principles behind the Third Reich's genocidal 
       crusade. It also chronicles the thrilling detective hunt 
       for the diary, which disappeared after the Nuremburg 
       Trials and remained lost for almost three quarters of a 
       century, until Robert Wittman, a former FBI special agent 
       who founded the Bureau's Art Crimes Team, played an 
       important role and tells his story now for the first time.
       The authors expertly and deftly contextualize more than 
       400 pages of entries stretching from 1936 through 1944, in
       which the loyal Hitler advisor recounts internal meetings 
       with the Führer and his close associates Hermann Göring 
       and Heinrich Himmler; describes the post-invasion 
       occupation of the Soviet Union; considers the 'solution' 
       to the 'Jewish question'; and discusses his overseeing of 
       the mass seizure and cataloguing of books and artwork from
       homes, libraries, and museums across occupied Europe. An 
       eyewitness to events, this narrative of Rosenberg's diary 
       offers provocative and intimate insights into pivotal 
       moments in the war and the notorious Nazi who laid the 
       philosophical foundations of the Third Reich"--|cProvided
