In a profusely documented and fascinating narrative David Irving charts Hitler's progress towards World War. He shows not only the uncanny hold this demonic man had over the German population; the loyalties and hysterical adulation he attracted; the achievements of rebuilding the economy, the armed forces and, above
all, the morale of the German nation. He also - having obtained first-hand accounts of Hitler's briefings of his subordinates made by contemporaries and preserved until now by their families - reveals in detail the inexorable build-up of racist and nationalist indoctrination which spawned the concentration camps, the SS and, ultimately, the Final Solution.
