Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Unmaking of Adolf Hitler, which includes dozens of photos from German collections, covers literally every aspect of Hitler's life from his success after he came to power in 1933 to his self-destruction. Renowned author Eugene Davidson describes in detail Hitler's stratagems in reviving morale and undoing the inequitable treaties imposed on Germany after World War I and his shrewd moves to take advantage of the fatal miscalculations of the coalition that had been aligned against the Reich. Once Hitler had brutally improved Germany's desperate state, there followed mortal errors and fateful mistakes of judgment arising from his own inadequacies. Compelling, well-researched, and eminently readable, The Unmaking of Adolf Hitler strives to explain how and why Hitler's empire collapsed from his own actions. Available only in the USA and Canada.

Download or read book Hitler s Ambivalent Attach written by Alfred M. Beck and published by Potomac Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2014-05-27 with total page 510 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friedrich von Boetticher was Germany's only military attaché accredited to the United States between the world wars. As such, he was Germany's official military observer in the capital of the nation whose potential as an ally of those powers arrayed against Adolf Hitler in the 1930s might have given the dictator pause in any predatory plans he harbored against his neighbors. Though von Boetticher produced a rich and detailed commentary on military and political affairs in Washington in the eight years prior to the outbreak of war between Germany and the United States in 1941, he was nonetheless accused after the war of misjudging America's productive potential and misleading Hitler with overly optimistic reports. As Alfred M. Beck points out, what he actually told German authorities in Berlin is strikingly different from what his detractors later claimed. Von Boetticher "permits a glimpse into the sociology of a conservative officer caste at once assailed by the politics of a regime and the impossibilities imposed on it, its weaknesses in resisting its evils, and its eventual failure to present an alternative to National Socialism's illusory attractions." A loyal German, von Boetticher had strong ties to America. His mother was American-born, he spoke English fluently, and he was enamored of American military history. He was also anti-Semitic and believed that "Jewish wire-pullers" had undue influence over the U.S. government and its policies. His professional ties to U.S. Army officers in the War Department were so strong--supplying them, for example, with details on German air strength and operations during the Battle of Britain in 1940--that they survived until August 1941 and long after the German ambassador himself had been recalled. Torn between his duty to Germany (though the Nazi regime had attempted to harm his son) and his deep affection for America, von Boetticher stood among the broad middle range of German officials who were neither perpetrator nor victim.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Adolf Hitler, born in Austria, was the ruler of Germany for twelve years. His reign culminated in World War II, in which millions of people died. This is the reason why he is counted among the most disgusting and evil people in history till date. Hitler was very interested in the arts from an early age and wanted to become an architect. He went to Munich (Germany) in 1913 and was fascinated by the art and architecture there. Despite being a German patriot, he could not get any government position because he did not have full citizenship there. Even after World War I, he remained in the army and progressed to the rank of police detective. Gradually Hitler became a good speaker. After listening to his speech, people would follow him like crazy and believe whatever he said. Hitler succeeded in bridging the gap between the lower and middle classes and bringing them to the same level. Ultimately, with the help of several parties, he seized power in Germany and took control of the army. Despite a lot being known about Hitler's ambition, autocracy and military operations, the common man remains eager to know more about him. In this book, detailed light has been thrown on many unknown aspects and many unknown secrets of this well-known and controversial personality of the 20th century.

Download or read book The War Aims and Strategies of Adolf Hitler written by Oscar Pinkus and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2005-06-15 with total page 547 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many have commented upon Hitler's inexplicable behavior during World War II. He failed to invade England; he neglected his air force; he engaged enemies on multiple fronts. Viewed in terms of Germany's struggle against the West, these and other actions made little sense. In truth, however, the war against Western powers had little to do with Hitler's grand plan: to conquer Russia and lands to the east of Germany, eradicate or enslave their populations, and create a vast Teutonic empire. In light of this goal, Hitler's actions were consistent throughout. In line with his dictum of "All or Nothing," once Hitler failed to defeat Russia in December 1941, he conducted the rest of the war with the sole purpose of inflicting maximum bloodshed and desolation, including upon Germany itself. Weakened, sensing defeat, he knew he was a drowning man--and he was determined to take friend and foe alike down with him. This evaluation of Hitler's objectives in World War II expands upon a theory gaining prominence among historians: Hitler's true motive was a crusade against the East, and he had little interest in waging war with England, much less the United States. It examines the different nature of the war on the Eastern and Western fronts; the disparate treatment afforded the two groups of POWs and civilians; and Hitler's scorched-earth policy, adopted after his primary objective proved beyond his grasp. In poignant, painful detail, it recreates the Russians' devastating four-year struggle against Germany, which went much further towards ensuring its defeat than any of the comparatively belated Western efforts.
