Ascoltato a Norimberga nell'udienza del 19 giugno 1946, riconobbe tuttavia che Hitler aveva tradito il popolo tedesco "gettandolo nell'abisso". Questo ritratto ripercorrerà la vita del genio dell'estetica del terzo Reich.

In life and in his grisly family suicide, Goebbels was one of Hitler's most loyal acolytes. Though powerful in the party and in wartime Germany, Longerich's Goebbels is a man dogged by insecurities and consumed by his fierce adherence to the Nazi cause. Longerich engages and challenges the careful self-portrait that Goebbels left behind in his diaries, and, as he delves deep into the mind of Hitler's master propagandist, Longerich discovers firsthand how the Nazi message was conceived. This complete portrait of the man behind the message is sure to become a standard for historians and students of the Holocaust for years to come.
