The book dives into the life of the child, the vicisitudes of the young man, the discoveries of his gift(s) to the death of the evil egomaniac that he became. It neither excuses nor glorifies the subject. It just lays them out in excruciating details for us to absorb and judge. In our troubled times in America, it is a must read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Highly Insightful and Provocative *by E***K on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on April 26, 2014* Fest, the son of a Catholic anti-Nazi, who grew up in Nazi Germany (but he never alludes to his own life), has written a masterful biography of the madman of the century. I have never read such insightful psychological analysis of Hitler, even in Kershaw's two volume biography. Fest has footnoted many German sources, which although the English reader wouldn't have access to, the author does, so he can draw on sources closed to those who are not fluent in German.Fest divides Hitler's life into three sections: the first 30 years, aimless and indolent; next, his founding of the Nazi party as a band of ruffians and he discovers his gift for oratory and controlling a crowd, as well as the 1930's where he consolidates his power and cultivates a bourgeois manner to quell English and French suspicions; and third, from 1939 on, when he drops all pretense of civility and returns to his violent roots, impetuous, indolent, tyrannical and fanatical.The first chapter asks the question, was Hitler a genius? When you read his behavior during World War II, you know he was not at all a genius. He was a criminal who happened to take over most of Europe. When Winston Churchill dubs this "the unnecessary war" in his memoirs, you realize how true that was. The Allies were fighting a genuine madman, ready to destroy Germany as well as himself as he realizes the game is up.My only reservation is that the book is not very readable. It is dense and requires patience and attention. But that is more than repaid. Among other biographies, the Fest stands out as an important analysis of the madman who almost conquered Europe. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ No other biography comes closer to the subject *by R***H on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 12, 2000* As a devoted reader of history, especially of the early 20th century period, I probably have gone through every popular and even arcane book on Hitler and National Socialism. I've read Albert Speer's "Inside the Third Reich," Shirer's "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reach," Alan Bullock's "Hitler and Stalin: Parallel Lives," . . . yet, these books, while informative, lack the depth of understanding of the horrible phenomenon of Hitler that Joachim Fest brings to his biography. Maybe because Fest himself is German and is therefore closer to his subject. Yes, the style is dry, and the book is indeed rather biased at times--the preface is titled incredibly "Hitler and Historical Greatness!" Yet, within that preface, you will find insights and observations that are lacking in all other biographies on the Fuehrer. I myself was riveted from page one all the way to the end. So, if you want to really understand Hitler, read this book. If you want to read a lighter biography, read the sections on Hitler in Bullock's "Hitler and Stalin: Parallel Lives." --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/110797091-hitler-kindle-edition](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/110797091-hitler-kindle-edition) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-05-05*
