Superior of its kind

Quite a few books have been written about Hitler and Nazi Germany since World War 2, including many for young people. This is by far the best bio of Hitler written for students that I am aware of (and I have read everything I can get my hands on about the subject). In a relatively small amount of space the author crams a huge amount of detailed information, all of it both appropriate and fascinating. Frequent references to the dictator's physical attributes, voice, bearing, personal fears, strange fetishes, tantrums, etc., all documented by eyewitness accounts, make this slice of history come alive for the reader. I am looking forward to reading other books by this fine historian.
