The source in which I read this in particular was William L. Shirer's Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, which is a very long and dense but extremely interesting and significant book published in 1960, directly after the opening of the Soviet and American archives of all the Nazi correspondence and records they had captured to historians. Shirer himself was a journalist stationed in Berlin in the 1930's so he had a literal front-row seat to most of the stuff that was happening at the time, which makes this book and his perspective really unique. The book is also written more as a piece of journalism, with lots of first-person quotes from the diaries and correspondence of Nazi leadership and soldiers, which makes it a lot more compelling to read.

This info comes from the first chapter, page 17, and the whole book is actually available to read for free on Amazon here, just click on the picture of the cover. However, reading it on paper is hard enough, and I'd imagine reading it on a computer is harder, so if you're in the mood to get stuck in I'd recommend getting the actual book or getting it on Audible, where you can get it for free if you sign up for a free trial.

You can choose to believe me or not. This was my organic chemistry text, for example. That same class also required a subscription to online chemistry software that wasn’t cheap, but it was ~10 years ago, so I don’t remember the cost for it. I also needed to get the lab manual and the solutions manual. The current edition is $380 for the text and solutions manual on amazon . IIRC, a new edition came out between my first and second semester of that class, so I had to buy it twice. Classes were often 3-4 credits, so 5 classes would be 15-20 credits (my university maxed out at 19 per semester, but you could petition for more if you wanted). Labs were 1 credit, and sometimes the manual was ~$100 and you couldn’t get it used. I averaged around 18 credits per semester with 2-3 of those credits being labs. So five classes, plus two of the accompanying labs... it adds up quickly.

I didn’t always spend $1,000 on books in a semester, but it happened more frequently than it should have.

This isn't even funny man. I'll have to sell both my eyeballs on the black market to be able to afford a gtx 1080 in my country.

Hmm, typically most point to "Blitzed" though I never have read that book and it seems to get slammed for going a bit 'alternative' on the matter of history.

I'd say combat drugs used by German units was quite widespread and notable, and was key for the Germans advancing as much as they did without really stopping - leading to disorganisation amongst the Allies as throughout WW2 as they themselves typically only used combat drugs in terms of airforce pilots or medicines and so forth, whereas the Germans had used it quite extensively throughout its armed forces. Panzerschokolade and Stuka tablets are rather notable nicknames for these stimulants.

Edit: Change Blitz into Blitzed, the proper book name and gave a link to it.
