Publisher Description

When Hitler's war ended in 1945, the war over Hitler, who he really was, what gave birth to his unique evil, had just begun. Hitler did not escape the bunker in Berlin, but, half a century later, he has managed to escape explanation in ways both frightening and profound. Explaining Hitler is an extraordinary quest, an expedition into the war zone of Hitler theories. This is a passionate, enthralling book that illuminates what Hitler explainers tell us about Hitler, about the explainers, and about ourselves.

"If you ever wondered about how one little man can come so close to ruling the world, this book will show you the psyche of a truly evil man. If you are a history buff and enjoy biographies this book was very compelling. "

    " don't be put of by the title. this is a fascinating book, as much about historiography than anything else. it seriously altered how i read all non-fiction afterwards. "

    " The intro was fascinating, and the info he analyzed was very interesting and personally done... but overall the author, Ron Rosenbaum, just repeated himself too much, like a bad mystery movie. Skim this book for the info, but don't plan on reading every word after the middle of chapter one. "

    " If your name was Rosenbaum, what kind of book would you write about the man who sent millions of your people to their deaths? "

    " This a great book about how our perceptions of evil say more about the truth of who we truly are than the truth of the evil. "

    " This book was like a philosophy and history seminar by a really good teacher. It is not so much about Hitler as the scholars and others who have pondering what evil is. "
