| Description: |
From 1942 Speer was the second most powerful man in the Reich and Hitler's right-hand man. This title reveals how Speer came to terms with his own acts and failures to act, his progress from moral extinction to moral self-education and the question of his real culpability in the Nazi crimes. |
