Publisher's Synopsis
How did a former Austrian corporal in the Bavarian army with no obvious gift for leadership or strategy become the leader of one of the most civilized countries in Europe?
This is a penetrating analysis of the personality of Adolf Hitler, perhaps the most enigmatic figure of the 20th century. Drawing on psychological studies of the time, The Madness of the Führer presents fascinating insights into one of history's most murderous dictators. This book explains the tyrant that ran the Third Reich and the demons that haunted him, with remarkable revelations about his sex life.
