5.0 out of 5 stars The book against which all Hitler bios will be measured, 31 Aug 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Adolf Hitler (Paperback)
This is the definitive biography of the maniacal dictator, the best since Robert Payne's "The Life and Death of Adolf Hitler." All other books on Hitler pale in comparison to this one. John Toland is probably the foremost historical author in the US, and his typical attention to detail is evident in this book, as in all his others. No other book on Hitler since has even come close to this one.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating Account of One of History's Most Important Men, 10 Jul 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Adolf Hitler (Paperback)
This is a very fascinating account of the life of one of history's most important, if notorious, figures, Adolf Hitler. Although a lengthy book(over 1,000 pages) it reads like a suspense novel and is rarely if ever dull and plodding. I have always had a "morbid" fascination with Hitler and I thought I knew just about everything about him. But this book revealed to me much that I never knew before. There are many interesting insights into the people around Hitler as well. Also, we learn many lessons about the coddling of dictators by the world's democracies which can be applied to current events in such places as Kosovo. I recommend this book without hesitation.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fascinating, 16 Jun 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Adolf Hitler (Paperback)
I am currently in the middle of this rather large book and am thoroughly fascinated with the both the historical and personal aspects of Mr. Toland's writing. I am recommending the book to others who, like me, may not appreciate all that Hitler represented to Germans and other Europeans and why his rise to power happened as it did. I see the book as a strong reminder of the need to involve oneself in the matters of civil life and the delicate balance between government and citizenry. I thank Mr. Toland for his detailed, yet objectively reported, inclusion of the personal details of Hitler's life. From these facts an individual can form their own thoughts about the evolution of this horrid piece of modern history. Hitler and the swastika are disturbing imagery in the current world yet, I feel it is by educating oneself on this dreadful history we are most able to protect ourselves from its reoccurrence. Mr. Toland makes this possible with a thoroughly human portrayal of the real Hitler.
