Reviews for Final Sale in Berlin: The Destruction of Jewish Commercial Activity, 1930-1945
Christoph Kreutzmuller's book is vigorously researched, elegantly structured and well-written, and succeeds in providing new information on a subject already exhaustively studied, namely 'Aryanization' and the destruction of business, that extends beyond the borders of Berlin.
