A Concise Biography of Adolf Hitler

Besides the Bible this is my favorite book. Though I wish there was a little more about his childhood,it still focused on main categories of his life.It not only focused on Hitler but his main associates.This Biography shows how truly vile,distgusting,and sickly funny,or entertaining the subject on Hitler really is.I mean he led people to commit suicide,video taped his victims getting murdered(watched it repeatedly),refrained from having sex,and supposedly liked women to use him as a toilet. I honestly find the story of Hitler fascinating,although I think they could have had illustrations throughout the book. This did exactly what a books job is,wich is to transport you to another time and place. I honestly think Adolf Hitler was the AntiChrist,because he fits the description better than anyone in History.It is said that the antichrist would refrain from having sex,or be a homosexual,would be a malicious dictater(a slaughterer),and would be more of a political man,rather than do it out of religeous purposes ( like Osama bin Laden). I think the first AntiChrist was Napolean,the second Hitler,and the third Saddam Hussein. It is even said that Hitler was the only other person in history besides Frederick the Great that had the exact same head shape,and size as Napolean. And just look at the three i mentioned as the antichrist's,there all short,stubby and evil dictators. I wonder who he will be next.The reason Osama's not the Antichrist is because he is very religeous,believes in God,is not a homosexual,and hasn't refrained from having sex,I know this because he has many children.And isn't doing this out of political reason's but religeous.So as u see he doesn't fit the description very well. Anybody who says the things in these books are false,need to prove it,or else your just defending Hitler's rep,and therefore a Nazi.Don't take what i said to seriously,and try not to be offended as a result of me typing this in my review. Anyway's,anyone who reads this needs to read my review on 23 Minutes In Hell(wich i would not recommend reading because it's the worst book i've ever read,and anyone who believes Bill Wiese's account on his supposed trip to Hell is much too gullible,and needs to come to terms with the real world). Just remmember,in order to defeat your enemy u have to know your enemy.

I don't think you could come up with any question about Hitler -- no matter how silly, serious or obscure -- which isn't answered in this book. You can try, but you probably won't succeed. My young nephew was assigned this book in a college level history course. When I was in college, none of the history books we were forced to read were anywhere near as entertaining (if I can use that word about Hitler) and down-right fascinating as this one. It is carefully researched and documented, scholarly, without ever being the least pedantic. Even if you think you already know enough about Hitler, I highly recommend you read this book.

The life Of Adolph Hitler is a facinating journey which has become riddled with myths by our popular culture. While adjectives such as evil and maniacal accurately describe Hitler, he was also a very intelligent man. Thomas Fuchs attemtps to dispell many of the myths, and bring out the truth with this book.Hitler seems to have be obsessed with creating poltical change since his career in art failed. Hitler also had other fascinations aside from anti-semitism (which was not his original idea). The book suggests Hitler to be a hypochondriac, which is somewhat beleiveable whether or not you believe that he had syphillis and bad teeth. Also, Fuchs discusses Hitler's obsession with wolfs, often seeing himself as sort of a lone wolf.My only objetion with this book is that it tends to be redundant at times. However, this is mostly due to the encyclopedia-like format of the book.For a reader that desires to learn more about perhaps the most hypnotically potent speaker in the history of humankind, this book is an excellent place to start. Many of the other Hitler biographies carry on far to long.

This book was great it is a good way to get the German perspective on the war. If your in to WW2 you should read this book!!!!!

This is unquestionably the ultimate resourse on a very complex individual. Formatted in a user-freindly encyclopedic style, this book details everything that was but never should-have-been concerning Hitler's entire life. Author Fuchs digs up some amazingly obscure facts about the much-chronicled Hitler. Most impressive are the chapters concerning his family life. I have personally used this volume numerous times for historical research, and insist this book used by all those interested in learning the truth behind Adolf Hitler.
