Product Description
Based on original research in primary sources, this radical biography of Hitler is presented in a fresh, insightful style and reveals aspects of the dictator’s life that were previously unknown. It attempts to explain convincingly the origins of Hitler’s anti-Semitism, demonstrates the crucial importance of art in Hitler’s life and vision for the German people, provides a lucid and cogent analysis of the genesis of the Holocaust, and reveals the truth about the 1939 assassination attempt on Hitler. Thorough and engaging, this is a penetrating insight into the complex and twisted mind of Adolf Hitler.

An impressively researched, deftly written, and confidently recommended biography March 6, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
There have been dozens of biographies on Adolph Hitler. Not surprising in view of his impact on Europe and the world in the early decades of the 20th century. Michael FitzGerald's biography differs from the others in several significant ways. Readers are presented with a portrait of Hitler that arising from the influence of Western European art, architecture and culture on his 'world view'. FitzGerald reveals that Hitler was the first European leader to adopt radical economic policies which were primarily responsible for bringing Germany out of the disastrous recession and runaway inflation brought about by the draconian provisions forced upon the nation by the victorious Allies after World War I. It will come as a surprise to most readers that Hitler was also the first world leader to adopt 'green' policies for his countries natural environment. An impressively researched, deftly written, and confidently recommended biography, "Adolph Hitler: A Portrait" also reveals the origins of Hitler's anti-Semitism and the very curious and unexpected phenomena of high-ranking anti-Semitic Jews within the Nazi Party.
