Summary
"Despite losing their overseas empire in 1919, German colonialists in the Third Reich adamantly and publicly promoted this empire. They faced a mix of occasional support, ambivalence, or outright opposition from Nazi officials. Empire in the Heimat demonstrates the continued place of overseas colonialism in shaping German national identity"--
