Hitler: The Man and the Military Leader 2 reviews Percy Ernst Schramm
Academy Chicago Publishers, 1999
A great leader but a very EVIL man
+ Adolf Hitler!
Wow, I never knew the human side of Hitler. He was a wiz with names and always took the time to pick out special presents for people's birthday. I think he is probably one of the most evil men who ever walked the planet. But he had some great leadership qualites, how else could this man rise ...

Hitler's World View: A Blueprint for Power 3 reviews Eberhard Jäckel
Harvard University Press, 1981

The book was published in 1966 and is, unfortunately, dated. There has been significant additional ...

Hitler and the Jews: The Genesis of the Holocaust 1 review Philippe Burrin
A Hodder Arnold Publication, 1994
A new work on the Holocaust leaves many questions unanswered
During the past twenty years historians have debated the circumstances in which the `Final Solution' became reality and the role of Hitler in the planning and execution of mass murder. The two schools of thought have been labelled `intentionalist' and `functionalist' (or `structuralist').
