Quote:
why do you know so much about him?
As a child I noticed that his name seemed to be synonomous with 'evil.' It is the only name you can drop in a room full of people and cause everyone to fall silent and stare at you. No other name, not Ghengis Khan, Jesus, Einstein, Stalin, or Napoleon has this effect.
I figured if I could understand this Hitler fella then I could understand anyone and have a better grasp of the human condition as a whole. I am not a racist or a National Socialist, my interest is merely in Hitler as a persona.
As the American Author Don Dellio one said "Some people are larger than life. Adolf Hitler was larger than death."
That pretty much sums up my feelings. I have read and reread multiple biographies and have countless hours of history channel viewing as credentials.
The best book I have read on Hitler is "The Life and Death of Adolf Hitler" by Robert Payne. I have read this biography 3 times."
