Book Review

How Green Were the Nazis? Nature, Environment and Nation in the Third Reich. Edited by Franz-Josef Brüggemeier, Mark Cioc, and Thomas Zeller. Athens: Ohio University Press, 2005. viii + 283 pp. Bibliography, notes, and index. Cloth $49.95, paper $22.95.

In this edited collection, the authors seek to answer the question posed in the title: just how green were the Nazis? The editors provide some background on the debate in their introduction, contrasting the scholars who hold environmentalism has roots in the Nazi era against those who hold the Nazis were anything but ecologically aware. The authors of each article come down somewhere in between, providing a more complex and nuanced picture of the relationship between National Socialism and environmental thought.
