Heinrich Himmler was an unremarkable looking man. Yet he was Hitler's top enforcer, in charge of the Gestapo, the SS, and the so-called Final Solution. We can only wonder, as biographer Peter Longerich asks, how could such a banal personality attain such a historically unique position of power? How could the son of a prosperous Bavarian Catholic public servant become the organizer of a system of mass murder spanning the whole of Europe? In the first comprehensive biography of this murderous enigma, Longerich answers those questions with a superb account of Himmler's inner self and outward acts. Masterfully interweaving the story of Himmler's personal life and political career with the wider history of the Nazi dictatorship, Longerich shows how skillfully he exploited and manipulated his disparate roles in the pursuit of his far-reaching and grandiose objectives. Himmler's actual strength, he writes, consisted in redrawing every two or three years the master plans for his sphere of power. Himmler expanded that sphere with ruthless efficiency. In 1929, he took the SS-a small bodyguard unit-and swelled it into a paramilitary organization with elite pretensions. By the end of 1934 he had become Reich Chief of the Political Police, and began to consolidate all police power in his own hands. As Germany grabbed neighboring territory, he expanded the Waffen SS and organized the "Germanization" of conquered lands, which culminated in systematic mass murder. When the regime went on the defensive in 1942, Himmler changed his emphasis again, repressing any opposition or unrest. The author emphasizes the centrality of Himmler's personality to the Nazi murder machine-his surveillance of the private lives of his men, his deep resentments, his fierce prejudices-showing that man and position were inseparable. Carefully researchedand lucidly written, Heinrich Himmler is the essential account of the man who embodied Hitler's apparatus of evil.Binding Type: Paperback

A Versatile and Elegant Solution for Room Separation
I recently purchased the GOFLAME 8 Panel Room Divider, and I'm thoroughly impressed with its quality and design. This room divider is not only a decorative element, but it also provides a practical solution for creating distinct areas within a room. Here's why I'm giving it a 5-star review:
Enhanced Privacy Space:
The 6 ft tall room divider is perfect for creating a private space within a larger room. It's ideal for my home office, and I can use it to separate my workspace from the rest of the room. The screen also creates a cozy and intimate atmosphere, making it perfect for relaxing or reading.
Hand-woven Texture:
The unique hand-woven texture of the room divider adds an element of sophistication and warmth to my room. The intricate craftsmanship is impressive, and it exudes artisanal charm. I love the way it looks, and it's become a conversation piece in my home.
Built with Strength:
The solid wood frame is sturdy and well-constructed, providing reliable support for the room divider. I'm impressed by the attention to detail and the quality of the materials used.
Foldable Design and Easy Storage:
The foldable design of the room divider makes it easy to store when not in use. I can simply fold the panels flat and store them away, which is convenient and space-saving. The metal hinges that connect the panels are also sturdy and well-made.
No Assembly Required:
I was pleasantly surprised to find that the room divider requires no assembly. I simply took it out of the box and set it up, and it was ready to use. The smooth woven surface is also easy to clean and maintain.
Overall Impression:
I'm thoroughly impressed with the GOFLAME 8 Panel Room Divider. It's a stylish and functional solution for creating a private space within a larger room. The hand-woven texture and solid wood frame add an element of sophistication and warmth, and the foldable design makes it easy to store. I

Unable to see through it and no gap at bottom!
Size: 2-Panel, Size: 2-Panel
Used to divide a large upstairs common area and it’s perfect. Needed something that was tall enough to give privacy, but wouldn’t hit the ceiling fan. It’s just over 6ft tall, you can’t see through it and it goes almost all the way to floor, something that was difficult to find with similar products. It is a bit flimsy on the ends and needs some support to stay in place (our ceiling is slanted so it actually hit the slant perfectly and doesn’t move on one end and I put a small hook in the wall for the other end so that it could be moved if needed). Overall it’s great quality and gives the feeling of a separate area/private room.

Convenient, sturdy and worth the price
Size: 6-Panel, Size: 6-Panel
Exactly what I wanted. Yes, it took some time to put it together and at first, I was concerned about the sturdiness of it. However, once it all came together I am very happy with my purchase. It’s now stable but easily movable. It easily folds for storage. One of the ends readily folds in a single panel so I will be able to use it as an access door. Instructions were fairly straightforward, but takes a while to put it all together. (About an hour and a half ) but quality seems good and well worth the price
