Ian Kershaw
This book is the culmination of more than three decades of meticulous historiographic research on Nazi Germany by one of the period’s most distinguished historians. The volume brings together the most important and influential aspects of Ian Kershaw’s research on the Holocaust for the first time. The writings are arranged in three sections - Hitler and the Final Solution, popular opinion and the Jews in Nazi Germany, and the Final Solution in historiography - and Kershaw provides an introduction and a closing section on the uniqueness of Nazism.
Kershaw was a founding historian of the social history of the Third Reich, and he has throughout his career conducted pioneering research on the societal causes and consequences of Nazi policy. His work has brought much to light concerning the ways in which the attitudes of the German populace shaped and did not shape Nazi policy. This volume presents a comprehensive, multifaceted picture both of the destructive dynamic of the Nazi leadership and of the attitudes and behavior of ordinary Germans as the persecution of the Jews spiraled into total genocide.

But the content is still excellent: a collection of individual articles as well as excerpts from across Kershaw’s career.
Compelling set of reflections on the Nazi regime and the Holocaust

This is historiography not history and very specifically the historiography associated with the author, who is a major figure in research and writing about the the Third Reich. It is a collection of his (mostly) unedited essays over time on the subject. If you are familiar with the debates, scholarship and writing on the Third Reich (for example, Functionalism versus intentionalism) this will be an excellent resource for understanding how the pieces evolved and controversies fit together. Specifically it shows the development of Kershaw's "Leader Principle" (Führerprinzip) / "Working towards the Führer" theory which has had a major impact on this field of study.
Excellent book, but not what some people may be expecting.
Excellent Historiography not intended as a history
