â‚¬Å“Magisterial . . . anyone who wishes to understand the Third Reich must read Kershaw.â‚¬Ââ‚¬â€¢Niall Ferguson
â‚¬Å“The Hitler biography of the twenty-first centuryâ‚¬Â (Richard J. Evans), Ian Kershawâ‚¬s Hitler is a one-volume masterpiece that will become the standard work. From Hitlerâ‚¬s origins as a failed artist in fin-de-siecle Vienna to the terrifying last days in his Berlin bunker, Kershawâ‚¬s richly illustrated biography is a mesmerizing portrait of how Hitler attained, exercised, and retained power. Drawing on previously untapped sources, such as Goebbelsâ‚¬s diaries, Kershaw addresses the crucial questions about the unique nature of Nazi radicalism, about the Holocaust, and about the poisoned European world that allowed Hitler to operate so effectively. 151 photos; 8 maps
