Seller's Description:
New York. 1978. Free Press. 1st American Edition. Former Owner's Bookplate & Stamp in Front From The Holocaust Library & Research Center in San Francisco, Otherwise Very Good in Slightly Dustjacket. 0029046300. 250 pages. hardcover. Jacket design by Mike McIver. keywords: History Germany Hitler Politics Business I.G. Farben Holocaust World War II. FROM THE PUBLISHER-One of the most unusual and startling stories of the Third Reich-and one of the strangest corporate histories of all time. This is the true account of the unholy alliance of Adolph Hitler and I.G. Farbenindustrie, Germany's great chemical combine-an alarming look at the military-industrial complex run wild. When Hitler took power, Germany was a raw material pauper except for coal. Realizing that his foreign policy and military might were hostage to the oil wells and rubber plantations of his enemies, he was determined to make Germany self-sufficient. The result was a marriage of necessity between I.G., legally stigmatized as a Jewish concern, and Adolph Hitler. Their common goal was to transform Germany's coal into a torrent of oil and rubber. How well they succeeded is written in the history of World War II. For five and a half years, Hitler's tanks, trucks and planes were propelled by I.G. 's gasoline and shod with I.G. 's rubber. Despite an early mutual antagonism, I.G. 's embrace of the Nazi morality became more passionate with each German victory. As country after country fell to the Wehrmacht's assault, I.G. played the jackal to Hitler's lion. It plundered the chemical industries of the stricken nations until its corporate empire extended from the Bering Sea to the Mediterranean, from the English Channel to the Danube. But it was not until I. G. joined the Nazi slave labor program that it plumbed the depths of Hitler's hell. Drawn by the prospect of free and unlimited slave labor, I.G. constructed at Auschwitz the largest privately-owned synthetic oil and rubber factories in the world. The building of these massive installations consumed more electric power than the city of Berlin. It also consumed tens of thousands of Auschwitz inmates who were gassed, hanged and worked to death. The existence of ‘I.G. Auschwitz' has assured for I.G. a unique place in Business history. It reduced slave labor to a consumable raw material. When no usable energy remained, the living dross was shipped to the gas chambers, where the S.S. recycled it into the German war economy-gold fillings for the Reichsbank, hair for mattresses, and fat for soap. At war's end, I. G. 's top executives were tried at Nuremberg for the crimes of mass murder, slavery, and plunder. The justice they received provides a story as unsettling as any of the events that preceded it. Supported by incredible documents, Mr. Borkin discloses the trail of corruption left in the wake of I.G. 's attempts to camouflage its American assets. He reveals the involvement of prominent Americans like Harry Daugherty, John Foster Dulles, Robert Kennedy, and President Kennedy's brother-in-law, Prince Radziwill. Here, then, is a little-known tale of individual evil. It should be read by anyone concerned with what the lure of power and profits can do to ‘ordinary' people. ‘ inventory #13917.
