De Adolf a Hitler (HCDJ-9788430619252) - Becoming Hitler: The Making of a Nazi

Award-winning historian Thomas Weber examines Adolf Hitler's time in Munich from 1918-1926, the years when Hitler shed his awkward, feckless persona and transformed himself into a savvy opportunistic political operator who saw himself as Germany's messiah. After opportunistically fluctuating between the ideas of the left and the right, Hitler emerged as an astonishingly flexible leader of Munich's right-wing movement. The tragedy for Germany and the world was that Hitler found himself in Munich; had he not been in Bavaria in the wake of the war and the revolution, his transformation into a National Socialist may never have occurred.
