劳伦斯•里斯（Laurence Rees）

英国广播公司（BBC）“纳粹警示录”栏目的创建者和撰稿人，该栏目被誉为“史上伟大的系列纪录片之一”，曾获“英国电影电视学院奖”和“国际纪录片奖”，他也由此被《泰晤士报》誉为“英国杰出的历史题材纪录片制片人”，其撰写的有关第二次世界大战和纳粹德国历史的系列图书获得了如潮好评。

Published in conjunction with the History Channel and the BBC, this prizewinning volume, now back in print, contains previously unpublished material and photographs documenting the reality of life under Nazi rule and the evolution of the ruthless slaughter of millions of people in Germany.

In this handsome edition, BBC producer and renowned historian Laurence Rees has collected the testimonies of more than fifty eyewitnesses, many of whom were committed Nazis, free to tell their stories only after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Rees offers us the compelling voices of soldiers and civilians rarely heard from—including a remorseless Lithuanian soldier who shot five hundred people and then went out to lunch, and the anguished older sister of a ten-year-old developmentally disabled boy selected for “immunization injection” (a fatal dose of morphine) at a children’s hospital. These materials cast a harsh new light on the rise and fall of the Third Reich.
