		Turner is best known for his work German Big Business and the Rise of Hitler, in which he rebuts the Marxist claim that it was German big business that primarily financed the Nazis seizure of power.
		Moreover, prior to March 5, 1933 election, giving Hitler his "mandate," most of the corporate donations to the Nazis, to the extent they were made, were mostly in the form of an "insurance policy", namely, as a way of trying to remain in the good graces of the Nazis should they come to power.
		Turner has argued that there was much contingency in Weimar period, and that in the early 1930s, there were four ways Germany could go politically:

		Turner concludes that far from being inevitable, there was a "high degree of contingency" and not a little luck in the Fuhrer's ascendancy.
		Turner puts that myth to rest in describing how the personal ambition of Hindenburg, Papen and Schleicher, as well as their ineptitude had more to do with Hitler's rise than Hitler himself.
		And Turner's general thesis--that Hitler's rise to power was anything but inevitable--is one that he proves (at least as far as I'm concerned) beyond a shadow of a doubt.

	Paul Christopher Anderson, Blood Image (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-19)
		Renowned as a born leader, graceful horseman, and violent partisan warrior, Turner Ashby was one of the most famous fighting men of the Civil War.
		Anderson explores how and why Ashby’s admirers in the Shenandoah Valley made him into their essential icon of “home.” Anderson also demonstrates that Ashby’s image—a catalytic, mesmerizing, and often contradictory combination of southern antebellum cultural ideals and wartime hopes and fears—emerged during his own lifetime and was not a later creation of the Lost Cause.
		With superb scholarship he shows that the force of Ashby’s image was double-edged: it inspired admirers in the Shenandoah Valley, but it also shielded them from the savagery of a war that challenged the very ideals at the heart of their defense of home.
