Books by Nicholas Stargardt

WINNER OF THE 2016 PEN HESSELL-TILTMAN PRIZE The Second World War was a German war like no other.

Witnesses of War is the first work to show how children experienced the Second World War under the Nazis. As they absorbed the brutal new realities of German occupation, Polish boys played at being Gestapo interrogators, and Jewish children at being ghetto guards or the SS.
