Rise of the Reich is a rare National Socialist-era publication produced by the SS Main Office in 1941, portraying the justification for the SS’s self-conceptions as heirs to centuries of German leadership, discipline, and statecraft through a sweeping ideological history of the German Reichs-Holy Roman, Prussian, and finally Hitler’s own.
With mythic grandeur and martial clarity, the book frames the National Socialist state not as a revolutionary break, but as a natural culmination of German destiny: a rebirth of order, hierarchy, and racial-national purpose after the humiliation of Versailles and the chaos of Weimar. This present Reich, as conceived by its new elites, saw itself as part of a grand and unified historical mission, with the SS as the vanguard of a “new man” for a regenerated Europe.
Antelope Hill Publishing is proud to present Rise of the Reich in English for the first time; this ideological artifact offers invaluable insight into the worldview that shaped National Socialist policy in its formative years. Reflecting the early-war optimism of a state not yet tempered by looming defeat, this book is a vital resource for serious researchers of National Socialist Germany and historical enthusiasts alike.
