Description

First published in 1980, The "Hitler Myth" is recognized as one of the most important books yet written about Adolf Hitter and the Nazi State, Focusing on what he called the 'history of everyday life,' Kershaw investigated the attitude of the German people toward Hitler, rather than looking at the dictator from the perspective of those who had positions of power. Kershaw wanted to discover how someone like Hitler could have become so powerful and why so many Germans failed to protest at the brutality of the Nazi regime. His work has proved useful for analyzing not only the Nazis, but also other movements or regimes with similar leadership cults. Book jacket.
