De Gruyter Nazis in the Holy Land 1933-1948

Product Description This book focuses on the relationship of Palestine-Germans with Arabs and Jews in the British Mandate of Palestine from 1933 to 1948/50: Young Germans marched through Haifa shouting „Heil Hitler!" and Swastika flags were hoisted at the German consulates. In 1931 a non-Jewish German made the initial contact with Nazi officials that led to the establishment of a miniature Third Reich with local Nazi groups. This is the first book in English on this bizarre „footnote" in history. About the Author Heidemarie Wawrzyn, Jerusalem, Israel.
