- Islam and Nazi Germany’s War (Harvard University Press, 2014; 500 pages) is the first comparative history of Muslims under German rule in during World War II. It addresses Germany’s engagement with Muslims in the fighting zones, efforts to ally with the ‘Islamic world’, and the recruitment of thousands of volunteers. German-Muslim encounters were often very complex, also involving Muslim Roma and Jewish converts. Based primarily on research in Germany, but drawing on archives from fourteen countries (with endnotes exceeding 150 pages), and embodying seven years’ research and writing, the book helps reshape our understanding of religion during the conflict.
