Product Description

Product Description

This is a radically different biography of Hitler, revealing aspects of his life that are either unknown or hardly known, based on original research in primary sources, analysed and narrated in a fresh, insightful style. It is the first book to explain convincingly the origins of Hitler's anti-Semitism, to demonstrate the crucial importance of art in Hitler's life and vision for the German people, and to reveal the truth about the 1939 assassination attempt on Hitler. It is a lucid and cogent analysis of the genesis of the Holocaust and a penetrating insight into the complex and twisted mind of Adolf Hitler.


About the Author

Michael FitzGerald has an honours degree in philosophy, including political philosophy, and is the author of a work on psychic warfare in World War II, which has been described as "racy and readable", "extremely well-researched", "the standard work on the subject" and "a classic in the field". He has made a lifetime study of Hitler and German history between 1918 to 1945 and has given numerous talks to a variety of organisations. This is his first book published by Spellmount Publishers. He lives in London.

4.0 out of 5 stars A different biography of Hitler, 16 Sep 2006
By Michael David Booker "Member of the Guild of ... (France and Egypt) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
The author - an acknowledged authority on Gemany between the period 1918-1945 has produced a volume that I think many readers will agree, is a very different biography of Adolf Hitler, one which will therefore will appeal to many historians and students of military history, as well a large number of general readers too.

This excellent volume is based on the author's extensive original research and reveals in print for the first time, many aspects of Hitler's life that were not widely known until now. It is said that this is the first book to convincingly explain the basis of Hitler's anti-Semitism and in that respect alone it will be invaluable for many. From another angle, he also demonstrates the importance of art in Hitler's life and his vision for the future of the German people.

It also reveals the truth behind the 1939 assassination attempt on Hitler's life and with the extracts from Mein Kampf and the many excellent photographs also included (which I personally believe tell a story all on their own), this volume provides the reader with a fascinating insight into the dictators life in general and thought processes,therfore making it a very interesting and readable volume.
