THE NAZI MIND Twelve Warnings from History

John Sackville's academic-sounding British accent does quite well in narrating this audiobook. A scholar of the national socialist period in Germany, Rees draws many parallels between how Hitler came to power and present-day politics in the West. However, while he decries the "us versus them" dichotomy--the propensity for humans to act in tribes--he seems to find it difficult to think that academics, the intelligentsia, and those with intellectual pretensions could be part of this dichotomy like any other human or group of humans. Sackville narrates at a mostly easy-to-follow pace, and his enunciation and expression are perfect. This production is especially worthwhile for listeners who wish to hear another warning of the rise of "them." M.T.F. © AudioFile 2025, Portland, Maine [Published: JULY 2025]
