description Occupation in the East: The Daily Lives of German Occupiers in Warsaw and Minsk, 1939-1944 . By Stephan Lehnstaedt . New York : Berghahn Books , 2017. Pp. 318. Cloth $130.00. ISBN 978-1785333231. Lehnstaedt's Alltagsgeschichte compares developments in two large cities under Nazi rule, describing how German occupiers interacted with--while establishing separate societies that largely remained aloof from--the local populations in Warsaw and Minsk. At the same time, he illustrates how some circumvented these restrictions. Providing rich details of their daily lives, he describes a "society of occupiers" that consisted of members of the German military, bureaucrats, and civilians (both male and female), who arrived to administer, live, and work in the "wild East" (148).
