Sounds like you are a Katja Hoyer fan. Just thought I’d mention that she has a new book coming out called: Beyond the Wall: A History of East Germany. It is available for preorder on Amazon. The book will be released on September 5, 2023. I already ordered a copy so I’m happy to find out that she’s a good writer!!

On the under-rated YouTube channel "WW2TV" she does a lecture on the rise of Nazism starting in 1918 (which is when you have to start that story). The channel is long form, the episode is an hour or so, but she covers everything, very engagingly and concisely.

Considering how misunderstood this period is, and how intricate it can be, it's a real treasure to have it laid out so clearly.
