New York Times Bestseller " A] fascinating, engrossing, often dark history of drug use in the Third Reich." -- Washington Post The Nazi regime preached an ideology of physical, mental, and moral purity. Yet as Norman Ohler reveals in this gripping new history, the Third Reich was saturated with drugs: cocaine, opiates, and, most of all, methamphetamines, which were consumed by everyone from factory workers to housewives to German soldiers. In fact, troops were encouraged, and in some cases ordered, to take rations of a form of crystal meth--the elevated energy and feelings of invincibility associated with the high even help to account for the breakneck invasion that sealed the fall of France in 1940, as well as other German military victories. Hitler himself became increasingly dependent on injections of a cocktail of drugs--ultimately including Eukodal, a cousin of heroin--administered by his personal doctor. Thoroughly researched and rivetingly readable, Blitzed throws light on a history that, until now, has remained in the shadows. "Delightfully nuts." -- The New Yorker NORMAN OHLER is an award-winning German novelist, screenwriter, and journalist. He is the author of the novels Die Quotenmaschine (the world's first hypertext novel), Mitte, and Stadt des Goldes (translated into English as Ponte City). He was cowriter of the script for Wim Wenders's film Palermo Shooting. He lives in Berlin.Binding Type: Paperback

Just an unbelievable purchase and strongly recommend
Color: Black, Size: Medium
Unbelievable! One of the BEST purchases I made. Fits perfectly, wasn’t wrinkled at all. In fact, I don’t need to take it to the cleaners to be pressed. Class all the way. Well made, elegant, fabric was perfect as it was not too thin. Compared to tuxedos in the store and this was exactly the same. Only difference is this suit was $150 less!

Good. Decent quality.
Color: Black, Size: Small
The quality is good, especially for the price. I didn’t like that the wrist buttons were non functional. We bought cuffs that he couldn’t use. It looks nice. The size is a little big for my son, but that was kind of expected. I was hoping we would get lucky and that wouldn’t be the case but I couldn’t find any suites in a smaller size that would arrive on time. He is 5’7, 120-125 pounds. It was mostly in the shoulders that it looks big. He is thin. The arm length fit him but he does have long arms. The pants fit with a little looseness. His jeans size at American eagle is 28/36, but he can fit slightly bigger with a belt. The pants were good but the vest and jacket were a little big. They’re just slightly long and jacket is big in the shoulders. We got a size small.

QUALITY AND COMPORTABLE FITTING IN LOWER PRICE...
Color: Navy, Size: Large
WOW! this suit really true to its sizes description... I ordered in a different company before this, but I have to return it TWICE because of wrong size fittings... Finally, this beautifully tailored suit timely arrived before my son's wedding reception, and we are ready to celebrate!!! Thank you and might order some different colors in the future... I wonder if they can make the pants in higher waist and straight cut or wider for the legs in the future as an option... Just a thought since slim fit pants are slowly outdating...

Great quality product!
Color: Black, Size: Large
Great product and great fit. I ordered a Large and normally wear a 42 Regular. Jacket was perfect, as was the vest. Pants waist is flexible and fit fine but length needs to be shortened. Overall, I’m impressed with this product! Highly recommended!

Fashion on budget.
Color: Black, Size: Medium
Beautiful, solid material, the texture feels expensive. Only returning because I need 2 sizes down as my son is very slim. Ordering an XS right away.
