    Sadists - World War II Torturers...

    This is a combo of several books, which are: 
    1: Josef Mengele - Fiction books have been written about him. Documentaries have revealed the horrors he executed on innocent victims in concentration camps in Poland. Meet Dr. Josef Mengele, a man with a twisted mind who had no compassion for the subjects he experimented on. His methods were cruel. His conclusions were inconclusive, and his sadism hardly knew any boundaries. 
    2: Adolf Eichmann - You thought Adolf Hitler was bad. Well, someone who was less fortunate with power and control but equally sadistic was one of his slightly lower officers: Adolf Eichmann, the man who was in charge of many of the Holocaust deportations. In this book, you will learn more about the life of Eichmann, someone who had been slowly getting used to the idea that supposedly, the Jews were inferior and were allegedly a problem for the German civilization. 
    3: Paul Goebbels - There are doers and there are preachers. The people who were executing orders or abusing people in World War 2 wouldn’t have been able to commit any atrocities if the country hadn’t warmed up to an inhumane narrative. That’s where propaganda came in. Propaganda has long been part of various countries and societies to make the population believe something, and to find culprits, create feelings of animosity, and glorify local leaders or military campaigns. 
    4: Rudolf Hoess - We’ve all had our humble beginnings, and we seemed so innocent as children. However, for some people, given their childhood and circumstances, and then the political or war-driven environment they face, it goes completely wrong. Such was the case for Rudolf Hoess, a cruel, murderous Nazi commander who had been brainwashed by the system that justified his aid in exterminating millions of Jews.
