29. This isn't a film

Future generations may make films about this era that show the joy, the romance, the passion, the dancing and the singing, and the hearts of audiences in the future will be warmed by the tales of joy and happiness in the midst of terror and deprivation. The promotional copy almost writes itself.

I would recommend:

I Will Bear Witness: A Diary of the Nazi Years, 1933-1941
Victor Klemperer

Last Train From Berlin: An Eye-Witness Account of Germany at War
Howard K. Smith

Auschwitz and After
Charlotte Delbo

Berlin Diary: The Journal of a Foreign Correspondent, 1934-1941
William L. Shirer

I Escaped from Auschwitz
Rudolf Vrba

They Thought They Were Free: The Germans, 1933-45
Milton Mayer
