Hitler: A Biography

This one-volume biography of Adolf Hitler distills Ian Kershaw's stunning two-volume study Hitler: 1889-1936: Hubris and Hitler: 1936–1945: Nemesis. From Hitler's origins as a failed artist in fin-de-siècle Vienna to the terrifying last days in his Berlin bunker, Kershaw's biography is a mesmerizing portrait of how Hitler attained, exercised, and retained power. Drawing on previously untapped sources, such as Goebbels' diaries, and illustrated with 151 photographs, Kershaw addresses crucial questions about the unique nature of Nazi radicalism, the Holocaust, and the poisoned European world that allowed Hitler to operate so effectively.
