This short nonfiction book was a good overview or introduction to Hitler. With so many historical fiction novels about the Holocaust and World War II it is always nice to have a nonfiction book to fill in the gaps. Hitler himself isn’t discussed as much in fiction so for readers who mostly learn history through those, this is a great companion book!

This was an okay read that unfortunately brought never new to the subject. Hitler has been written about so many times that I supposed I was expecting new information insteadof stuff I already knew.

I would recommend this to those who aren't as well read on Hitler.

This is another great insight into what lead the greatest killing machine of all time to do what it did. Andrew Norman explored the writings of deluded Liebenfels which explored the mass murder of gypsies, Jews and more, which were the foundation of the Nazi's objectives. This book was short, but condensed and highly informative. It is well compiled and reads very well. I'd particularly recommend it for those beginning their research on the Nazi party and the notorious Adolf Hitler

TRIGGER: This is a non-fiction book.

Adolf Hitler will always be a controversial figure in the human history. With the controversy; some people may think that he is brutal and some may think that he is an interesting subject to be analysed. I personally categorised myself as the second one. As I am from the far East; so, I only hear and know Hitler’s figure from the historical books or journal that I have been reading. My experience will always be different with people who experience a living under his regime or somebody who has a historical connection with the cruelty of Nazi. Yet it does not change the fact that Hitler is one of the figures that changes the history of mankind.

Sadly nothing new, but was an interesting read regardless. Was more for readers who perhaps coming to the subject afresh.

This is a short book that is extremely well written. The only problem is that it doesn't have any new information, as Hitler is written about quite often and I had read all of the facts in this book It was a well organized biography and a great read, just not for people looking for new information.

Very interesting read. Sadly a lot of the books out there on Hitler all contain the same information. They never bring much else to the book. He was such an interesting person to read about
