Notes on Hitler

“Did Hitler love the Germans? He chose Germany for himself without really knowing it, and in fact he never really got to know it. The Germans were the chosen nation for Hitler, because their innate power instinct, like a magnetic compass needle, pointed to the Germans as the greatest power potential in Europe at that time, which they truly were. The Germans were interested in Hitler only as an instrument of power.

(…) The German people were an ambitious nation at that time – ambitious but politically at a loss, and the union of the two offered Hitler the chance he wanted.” An impressive portrait of Adolf Hitler from Sebastian Haffner, author of A German's Tale. It is both an analysis and an emotional evaluation on Hitler: A spiritual accounting of what he "did" to Germany, the Germans, the people, and humanity...

The book offers a very concise summary of Hitler's life story and actions. It is a concise summary, not only in terms of extracting the essence, but also in its literary expression. Afterwards, Haffner discusses the "achievements" of the leader of national socialism; In other words, it looks at how this most "perfect" and terrible example of fascism is possible. From there he comes to his "mistakes", "crimes" and "treason". With the "civilization disaster" it caused, it is not only a betrayal of human values, but also a betrayal of Germany and the Germans themselves... A work that manages to be original and thought-provoking, on a topic that has been written about a lot.
