You cannot separate the man from the monstrous movement he came to embody. From his ascendance through the party's ranks to his final hours as Führer in April 1945, Longerich shows just how ruthless Hitler was in his path to power. He emphasizes Hitler's political skills as Germany gained prominence on the world's stage. Hitler's rise to, and ultimate hold on, power was more than merely a matter of charisma; rather, it was due to his ability to control the structure he created. His was an image constructed by his regime - an essential piece self-created of propaganda. This comprehensive biography is the culmination of Longerich's life-long pursuit to grasp the man behind the century's worst crimes." |c--Provided by publisher. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 600 10 Hitler, Adolf, |d1889-1945. 650 0 Heads of state |zGermany |vBiography. 651 0 Germany |xPolitics and government |y1933-1945. 650 0 National socialism. 650 0 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) 600 17 Hitler, Adolf, |d1889-1945. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00034591 611 07 Holocaust, Jewish (1939-1945) |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00958866 650 7 Heads of state. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00952677 650 7 National socialism. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01033761 650 7 Politics and government. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919741 651 7 Germany. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210272 648 7 1933-1945 |2fast 655 7 Biographies. |2lcgft 655 7 Biographies. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919896 700 1 Noakes, Jeremy, |etranslator. 700 1 Sharpe, Lesley, |d1952- |etranslator. 852 0 |bstacks |hDD247.H5 |iL5613 2019
