Lying
About Hitler : History, Holocaust, and the David Irving Trial
by Richard J. Evans
Writes Anthony Morris: According to one statistic quoted by
Lipstadt, more US citizens "believe that Elvis Presley is alive than ...
believe the Holocaust didn't happen"; but even this statistic acknowledges
that Holocaust-denial is alive and well in the hearts and minds of people
who are not confined to insane asylums, and who perhaps even have an IQ
which exceeds their shoe size. (Read more of his excellent review at LexScripta)

Hitler
& Geli
by Ronald Hayman
Few people know of the affair Adolf Hitler had with his niece, Geli
Raubal. The couple shared a strangely intense, passionate relationship,
but it was always dogged by Hitler's intolerance, his chauvinistic attitude
to womanhood and his possessive jealousy. In 1931, aged 23, Geli Raubal
was found dead in the Munich flat she shared with Hitler, his revolver
on the floor and an unfinished letter on the table. Hitler was shattered
by his niece's death, and for the rest of his life couldn't speak... Amazon.com

Hitler:
1889-1936: Hubris
by Ian Kershaw
Noted for his excellent structural explanation of the Third Reich's
political culture in The Hitler Myth, eminent historian Ian Kershaw shifts
approach in this innovative biography of the Nazi tyrant. The first of
a two-volume study, Hubris is far from a simple rehearsal of "great man"
history, impressively exploring the historical forces that transformed
a shiftless Austrian daydreamer into a dictator with immense power.
In his forthright introduction, Kershaw acknowledges that, as a committed
social historian, he did not include biography in his original intellectual
plans. However, his "growing preoccupation" with the structures of Nazi
domination pushed him toward questions about Hitler's place and considerable
authority within that system. He argues that the sources for Hitler's power
must be sought not only in the dictator's actions but also (and more importantly)
in the social circumstances of a nation that allowed him to overstep all
institutional and moral barriers. In a comprehensive treatment of Hitler's
life and times up through the remilitarization of the Rhineland in 1936,
Kershaw draws from documents recently made available from Russian archives
and benefits from a rigorous source criticism that has discredited many
records formerly understood to be reliable. Hubris thus supplants Alan
Bullock's classic Hitler: A Study in Tyranny as the definitive account
of a man who, with characteristic smugness, indicated that it was a divinely
inspired history that made him: "I go with the certainty of a sleep walker
along a path laid out for me by Providence." Kershaw's penetrating analysis
of how such a certain path could emerge from the dire circumstances of
post World War I Germany is the abiding strength of Hubris. --James

Hitler:
1937-1945: Nemesis
by Ian Kershaw
George VI thought him a "damnable villain," and Neville Chamberlain
found him not quite a gentleman; but, to the rest of the world, Adolf Hitler
has come to personify modern evil to such an extent that his biographers
always have faced an unenviable task. The two more renowned biographies
of Hitler--by Joachim C. Fest ( Hitler) and by Alan Bullock ( Hitler: A
Study in Tyranny)--painted a picture of individual tyranny which, in the
words of A.J.P. Taylor, left Hitler guilty and every other German innocent.
Decades of scholarship on German society under the Nazis have made that
verdict look dubious; so, the modern biographer of Hitler must account
both for his terrible mindset and his charismatic appeal. In the second
and final volume of his mammoth biography of Hitler--which covers the climax
of Nazi power, the reclamation of German-speaking Europe, and the horrific
unfolding of the final solution in Poland and Russia--Ian Kershaw manages
to achieve both of these tasks. Continuing where Hitler: Hubris 1889-1936
left off, the epic Hitler: Nemesis 1937-1945 takes the reader from the
adulation and hysteria of Hitler's electoral victory in 1936 to the obsessive
and remote "bunker" mentality that enveloped the Führer
as Operation Barbarossa (the attack on Russia in 1942) proved the beginning
of the end. Chilling, yet objective. A definitive work. --Miles Taylor

The
Hitler of History
by John Lukacs
The horrible life and work of Adolf Hitler have long raised puzzling
questions for historians: How could the putatively civilized German nation
allow a leader to plunge it into murderous barbarism? Why did the rest
of Europe not put a stop to Hitler's rise before Germany could amass imperial
power? How did Hitler transform bourgeois anti-Semitism into the Holocaust?
John Lukacs addresses these and many other questions in this book of essays
on the many problems Hitler and his regime present to historians. He assesses
the contemporary, too-abundant literature, and makes some surprising and
controversial evaluations. Amazon.com

Mein
Kampf
by Adolf Hitler
Translated into "My Struggle", this book offers a look into the hateful
mind of the century's most evil figure. Released in English in 1933, when
many around the world were looking for clues about the rise of the German
fascist, militaristic regime, it stands today as a historical document.
We can see Hitler's vision of a unified Germany, his hatred of the Jews
and his thoughts on the power of the state. One could be tempted to dismiss
it as the musings of a madman, but civilized societies should remain mindful
of Hitler's power to corrupt and pay attention to his words in order to
be certain that they - or ones like them - aren't used to influence again
