An interesting academic study of alternative history January 6, 2007 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Rosenfeld has created an interesting academic study of the fascination we have with the idea with "What if?" This books obviously focuses on the idea of if Hitler had won the war. More specifically; If Hitler had won the war (and also if Britain had made peace with Germany, if Hitler had escaped at the end of the war and various questions around the Holocaust.
As Rosenfeld himself points out these hypothetical questions can never be satisfactorily addressed because Germany lost the war, Hitler killed himself and the tragedy of the Holocaust did happen. But nonetheless these ideas do fascinate a large number of people and Rosenfeld brings together all the novels, programmes and films that have covered this idea, people like Harris, Turtledove and Deighton and numerous historians, and he examines their impact and how the portrayal of the Germans has shifted over the years.
An interesting study for anyone interested in this genre of fiction or modern history.
