Disappointingly shallow
Revisado: 12-30-24
Quickly becomes apparent that this is about as deep as any pop history YouTube video. Calling these essays as also factually incorrect as the majority hand wave away trends and forces to suit the authors desired outcome. Very little if no exploration or explanation into even the primary knock off effects of these counter factuals. As a fan of alternative history these just seem like extended theorycrafting by a well meaning but largely careless Turtledove fan.

An extraordinary mythology has grown up around the Third Reich that hovers over political and moral debate even today. Adam Tooze's controversial book challenges the conventional economic interpretations of that period.

The best there is

An incredible but exhausting journey of madness and depravity through the lens of economic history. A great balance of hard numbers with enough flavor to keep it from becoming a class.
