This book is important because William Russell, the author, describes what is was like to live in Germany from 1938 to early 1941 when he worked in Berlin at the American Embassy. Most revealing are his observations of "everyday" Germans and their opinions of Hitler and living under the requirements of the Third Reich. Although many Germans in private conversation did not support Hitler, they tacitly acknowledged his leadership under the intimidating rules of the Third Reich out of fear their neighbors would report them as traitors. This book was first published in 1941 and was written as a memoir based on the author's journal to explain how ordinary Germans regarded Hitler. In 1941, information about the Third Reich and Hitler did not travel to America with the speed that European news travels today so it is easy to see why this book became a bestseller when it was published. Today, the individual interviews reported in this book give a picture of German everyday thought and behavior that explains how Hitler rose to power. While his reporting does not claim to be comprehensive coverage of what all Germans thought, Russell's interviews and observations cover the differences between generations as well as his assessment of why they occurred. Because Russell is reporting the dialogue between himself and his interviewee his conversations appear as a fresh recollection of the time. I think anyone who would like to know what is was like to live in 1938 in Germany before and during the first two years of what became World War 2 would really appreciate this book. Unfortunately, while readable, the Kindle Edition has many misspelled words as well as words that make no sense, i.e. "mem" instead of "mein" used in a quotation. It is disappointing that this new 2018 edition was so poorly edited. The editor(s) either relied on flawed technology to edit the text or did not read the text for accuracy and/or really did not know grammar or spelling with sufficient knowledge to recognise errors when they occurred. Despite its errors, this book is engrossing.
Some of the earlier reviews were critical of this book as pedestrian and naive; in fact, this memoir is a readable and interesting description of what Russell observed and did in the three years he spent at the embassy until mid-1942. It seems unreasonable of some reviewers to expect him to know what would happen in the ensuing years, or to suggest that he ought to have reported more than he observed, just as it seems odd to say that the jokes told by his German aquaintences weren’t very funny. For my part, I quite liked this book as a description of a very interesting period from the perspective of a member of the Consular Service, especially when he discusses the visa process, the shortages of everything (even for diplomats), and the level of control Hitler’s minions exercised over even mundane matters.
I don’t know how I missed reading this very important book earlier because it has been so many years since its first publication in 1940.This book made one thing clear for me; that not all Germans are to blame for the Holocaust; that not all Germans liked the Nazis; that not all Germans knew or caught onto what was happening to them or to their country; that not all of them participated in the heinous crimes. If anything, some of the anti-Nazis were done away with or badly punished by the regime.At the time, the author of this book, William Russell, was a clerk who worked in the immigration section of the American Embassy in Berlin. Although his stay in Germany began in 1937, his notes and the penning of his memoirs must have begun in 1939. I think he didn’t grasp, then, how important this book would become when he started taking notes for it.He says in the beginning, “I have put down the small things that happened to small people in the hope that they would give the best picture of Germany as it is today.†That is in 1939.A little more than a year later, on April 13, 1940, Russell left Germany. “I said good-bye to a flock of people — Americans, Germans, Nazis, anti-Nazis, rich, poor, intellectuals, bums — whom I had more or less collected over a period of three years.â€His personal experiences of life in Berlin during the time when the war was just about to begin and people were on edge are eye-opening. At the time, World War II was just beginning with Nazi Germany already well established with Hitler in power for the last six years.Still, most Germans were anti—Nazi or contemptuous of the Nazis, but they did not voice their opinions in fear of the minority favoring the regime because the ones that did, they lost in some way when reported.Those in the middle were at best cynical. Yet, if a war were to be fought, they thought they’d back the regime. The German population was also suffering greatly to think of what was right or wrong.Electricity, street lights, and heating in winter were almost non-existent because the Nazis probably wanted the population to focus on their daily existence rather than the shortcomings of the regime. As the author says, “the food shortages and the coal shortages and the breakdown of the train schedules were not written up in the newspapers.â€Nobody knew what the real news was. Everyone asked everyone else and rumors were a dime a dozen.I also found important what the author thought of about the Nazi rulers and the regular people he came in contact with, people who were friendly but were afraid to say what they thought and experienced. Still during their visits and parties, if they trusted the others the jokes kept flowing about the rulers and the situation in Germany.Of all the Nazis, “the most hated man in Germany is the little cripple, Dr. Paul Joseph Goebbels,†says Russell, “the butt of so many sharply pointed jokes.â€He adds that Goebbels as the director of the Ministry for Propaganda and Peoples’ Enlightenment, who is adept at propaganda, controls the news and the film industry with an iron fist.The rules set by Goebbels are: “No movies may depict marital trouble. No films on political subjects. No large-scale musical films. No spy films. No gangster films. No films based on the old operettas whose scenes were laid in Russia. No films which glorify or more than mention the Church. No movies about America.†It wasn’t just the film industry but all literature as well that was being controlled.About, Adolf Hitler, the author says: “In 1933, when Hitler came to power, many people in Germany shrugged their shoulders and said, ‘Oh, let him come. He’s tried long enough. It’s only another form of wild socialism and it will cool off in six months.’ He is a phenomenon; as such, the better one tries to understand him the more Sphinx-like he becomes.â€According to Russell, Hitler was lazy and talked too much, not letting anyone else have a say, ever.He also mentions the coolness and the lack of diplomatic relations between the American Embassy and official Germany. "As far as diplomatic pleasantries were concerned, we might as well not have an Embassy in the German capital."In essence, in these following words of the author exists a lesson for all nations: “In order to rule people more easily, the Nazis just reduce them all to the same level and dare them to have any Ideas of their own.â€What is in them is a warning that worse, much worse, things may be in the making, such as the Holocaust.
