Synopsis
In this update of the 1991 edition, Kershaw (modern history, U. of Sheffield) applies his model of charismatic rule in analyzing the sociopolitical rather than personal psychological foundation of Hitler's rise to power and fall. Includes photographs, a summary of recent research trends, and a chronology of events from Hitler's birth in 1889 to the German surrender in 1945. Annotation c.
