Detailed history of Himmler's evil organisation, whose 20,000 members were responsible for the internal security of the Reich. Based on the Gestapo's own archives and eyewitness accounts, the author charts the development of the organisation, its key figures such as Heydrich and Muller, its brutal methods and how the Gestapo dealt with internal security, including the various unsuccessful attempts to assassinate Hitler.
