Publisher's Summary

This masterful biography by one of Germany’s best known journalists was the leading nonfiction best seller in Germany. Fest shows Hitler as the receptacle of the dreads and resentments of a shaken social order, gifted with an uncanny instinct for all that was hollow behind the appearance of power, at home and abroad. Though a warped human being, he was neither clown nor puppet, as many liked to think; Hitler appears here as an enormously astute politician, impressing and hypnotizing Germans and foreigners alike with the scope of his projects and the theatricality of their presentation. In the last analysis, however, Fest uncovers in Hitler a constantly destructive personality, which aimed at and achieved destruction on an unprecedented scale, not least because an insecure world gave him his opportunities.

Well Written, Excellent narration.

The story is what we all know, Hitler, but this book provides a deeper insight into his mind blowing, weird, fanatic, and radical mind.

Interesting history, often misunderstood.

An insight to one of the most evil Leftist leaders in history. Anyone throwing the term “Nazi” around would do well to listen to this book for a deeper understanding of National Socialism.
