The book describes the life and work of Hermann Goering, Hitler's closest ally, his Reichsmarschall, a World War I combat pilot, a descendant of a Prussian noble family who ruined his life and destiny in collaboration with the Fuhrer, although he gained great power and wealth thanks to him. His fate was a reflection of the fate of the German people, who became a voluntary victim of the extravagant ideas of the Nazi leader.
