Read a sample Read a sample

In this riveting, powerful narrative, Lynn Nicholas shows how children under the Nazis became mere objects available for use in the service of the totalitarian state. Nicholas recounts the euthanasia and eugenic selection, racist indoctrination, kidnapping and "Germanization," mass executions, and slave labor to which the Nazis subjected Europe's children. She also captures the uprooted children's search for their families in the aftermath of the war. A disturbing and absolutely necessary work, Cruel World opens a new chapter in World War II studies.

From the Trade Paperback edition.
