Hitler's Girl is a groundbreaking history that reveals how, in the 1930s, authoritarianism almost took hold in Great Britain as it did in Italy and Germany. Drawing on recently declassified intelligence files, Lauren Young details how sympathy for the Nazi cause pervaded the British aristocracy, with significan factions of the upper class actively and methodically pursuing a pro-German agenda. She discloses how these aristocrats formed a murky fifth column to Nazi Germany, which depended on their complacency and complicity to shake England's proud, long-standing democratic tradition. Historians look at the rise of Fascism on the Continent during the 1930s as a guide to understanding the perils of today's world. Yet the insidious story of Fascist sentiment in England before the Second World War has been largely overlooked, with most of the historical evidence classified by successive British governments as too explosive. Highlighting the parallels to our similarly treacherous time, Young exposes the involvement of secret organizations such as the Right Club, which counted the Duke of Wellington among its influential members; the Cliveden Set, which ran a shadow foreign policy in support of Hitler; and the shocking relationship between the socialite Unity Mitford and Adolf Hitler. Eye-opening and instructive, Hitler's Girl reevaluates 1930s England to help us understand our own vulnerabilities: the Russian oligarchy and the invasion of Ukraine, Brexit, and the election of Donald Trump. These threats to our postwar democratic traditions mirror aspects of England's own prewar clandestine reality and raise disturbing questions: At what point does complacency become complicity, posing a real risk to the democratic norms that we take for granted? Is a cataclysmic event like World War II needed to reassess and ensure democracy's survival? THERE IS A BLACK "CLOSEOUT/REMAINDER" MARK ON THE BOTTOM PAGE EDGES.
