Mayer, Arno J. (17 de marzo de 1990). Why Did the Heavens Not Darken?. New York: Pantheon. pp. 139. ISBN978-0-679-72899-3.Perhaps most controversial work of Marxist historian Arno J. Mayer, but the fact that he has been professor at Wesleyan University (1952-1953), Brandeis University (1954-1958) and Harvard University (1958-1961), before settling at Princeton in 1961 (where he is now Dayton-Stockton Professor of History, Emeritus), and the fact that publisher Pantheon is a division of Random House (one of the world's largest publishers) give credence to his scholarship if not his conclusions. None of the criticism of Why Did the Heavens Not Darken? challenged his statement that the Nazi nobility, among who he specifically cites Hohenzollern-Emden, gave valuable support and prestige to the Nazi movement.
