Presents volume five of an eight-volume series on Holocaust Biographies and examines the role of Hermann Goring in Hitler's "final solution" and provides information on Goring's early life, his rise within the Nazi Party to become Hitler's second-in-command and head of the Luftwaffe, his capture at the end of the war, and suicide before his execution.

Hermann Goring was Adolph Hitler's right-hand man. As he rose to power though, he became increasingly disillusioned, withdrawing from the political scene to enjoy the pleasures of his life as a wealthy man. He was eventually shunned by Hitler and by the time he was convicted of crimes against humanity at the Nuremberg trials, he was alone and without allies. Before he could be hanged, he committed suicide in prison.

An account of Hermann Goering's role in Nazi Germany, in the creation of the Luftwaffe, and in World War II.
