The Life and Death of Adolph Hitler

Many people believed Hitler was the personification of evil. This intriguing biography penetrates the façade and presents a picture of a complex person – at once a brilliant, influential politician and a deeply disturbed man. In a straightforward and nonsensational manner, the author explorers the forces that shaped the man as well as the social conditions that furthered his rapid rise to power. Against a background of cultural issues, Giblin traces the arc of Hitler’s life: his childhood, his years as a frustrated artist in Vienna, his extraordinary rise as Dictator of Germany, and his final days in an embattlement bunker under Berlin. Powerful archival images provide a haunting visual accompaniment to this clear and compelling account of a life that left ineradicable mark on our world.
