![]() ![]() Fully illustrated with rare postcards and letters. Highly recommended reading for anyone wishing to gain a greater understanding of the forces which shaped Hitler, Nazi Germany, and ultimately history itself. The section by his doctor, first published in 1941, is a surprisingly sympathetic account of the young Hitler, and the effect of his mother's death upon his family. Read of Hitler's secret childhood romance, his grand plans to rebuild his hometown, the formation of his political ideas, his personality and family, his love for the opera, his attitude toward women, and much more. These two sets of memoirs, published together for the first time, provide an unparalleled insight into the formative teenage years of the man who would later shake history. To understand the Hitler phenomenon, one must understand his self-image, says Hant, the self-image of a man who knew that he had been chosen by God. The "lost years" of Adolf Hitler's childhood are vividly brought to life by two people who knew him well: his best childhood friend, August Kubizek, and the Jewish doctor who treated both the young Adolf and his mother in the Austrian city of Linz. Young Hitler is a fact based narrative ('non-fiction novel') that covers the time between Hitlers 16th and 30th year of age. ![]()
