Omschrijving
‘The guillotine was the silent weapon of Nazi terror — and Johann Reichhart its most faithful servant.’
While the world remembers the horrors of the concentration camps, few know of the other, quieter machinery of death that powered the Nazi regime – a judicial system that turned the art of execution into an industry.
Hitler’s Headsmen reveals the untold story of the judges and executioners who enforced the tyranny of the Nazi regime, taking readers deep inside the bloody machinery of the Third Reich’s judicial terror – a world of guillotines, torture, and state-sanctioned murder.
At its centre stands Johann Reichhart, Hitler’s most prolific executioner, responsible for thousands of deaths under the Nazi courts. Alongside counterparts such as Alois Weiss in Prague, Reichhart turned law into a weapon of fear. From the White Rose resistance to the aftermath of the July Plot, their victims included students, priests, and soldiers – anyone who dared to challenge the Führer’s grip on German society.
Hitler’s Headsmen uncovers how the Nazis weaponised justice, how ordinary men became state-sanctioned killers, and how, in a final twist of fate, Reichhart was later employed by the Allies to hang the very criminals he once served.
This groundbreaking work, exploring a little-known area of Nazi history and the experiences of those who lived through the Second World War, lays bare the dreadful machinery of judicial terror and capital punishment in the Third Reich.
‘Utterly compelling — exposes a forgotten chapter of the Third Reich with forensic precision and human insight.’
‘A chilling and necessary exploration of how evil hides behind bureaucracy and obedience.’
‘'Meticulous, disturbing, and unforgettable. This is history at its most confronting.’
‘Inside the bloody machinery of Nazi justice — the real story of the executioners who carried out Hitler’s law across the Third Reich.’
