Hermann Goering stands out among the prominent figures of Hitler's Third Reich, making him a compelling subject for biography. Mosley, a seasoned journalist and biographer, presents an engaging portrayal of Goering, distinct from the scholarly works on other Nazi leaders. While lacking meticulous endnotes and deep analysis, Mosley draws on various sources, providing a vivid depiction of Goering as a larger-than-life character. His portrayal balances sympathy and judgment, ultimately capturing the essence of this complex figure. A notable advantage for Mosley is his personal experience; he met Goering before the war and visited his estate in East Prussia. After the war, he conducted extensive interviews with those who knew Goering well, offering insights that differentiate his account from others. Although I disagree with Mosley’s assertion that Goering’s primary flaw was a lack of moral courage to oppose Hitler, it is evident that Goering was deeply influenced by Hitler’s charisma and could not defy him. Ultimately, when Hitler failed him, Goering was left powerless to change his fate. Critics who condemn Goering for not standing up to his idol may not grasp the profound nature of that loyalty. This biography serves as a valuable resource for those studying the history of the Third Reich.
