This is the Japanese translation of Travellers in the Third Reich: The Rise of Fascism Through the Eyes of Everyday People. The author of this book is well known to many JBS members as the wife of Sir John Boyd, who was British Ambassador to Japan from 1992 to 1996. This book tells the extraordinary history of the rise of the Nazis based on fascinating first-hand accounts, drawing together a multitude of voices and stories, including those of students, politicians, musicians, diplomats, schoolchildren, communists, scholars, athletes, poets, journalists, fascists, artists, tourists, and even celebrities like Charles Lindbergh and Samuel Beckett.
