Publisher's Synopsis
Following the enormous success of HITLER 1889-1936 HUBRIS this book triumphantly completes one of the great modern biographies. No figure in 20th century history more clearly demands a close biographical understanding than Adolf Hitler; and no period is more important than the Second World War. Beginning with Hitler's startling European successes in the aftermath of the Rhineland occupation and ending nine years later with the suicide in the Berlin bunker, Kershaw allows us as never before tounderstand the motivation and the impact of this bizarre misfit.
