Why Hitler?: The Genesis of the Nazi Reich Hardcover - 1996
by Samuel W. Mitcham
Transporting the reader to the Germany of the 1920s and '30s, this history details the climate that brought the crumbling of the Weimar Republic and the rise of Hitler and the Nazi Reich. Samuel W. Mitcham, Jr., is an internationally recognized authority on Nazi Germany and World War II.
From the rear cover
Hitler attained power in 1933 as the result of a complex set of factors, including the Treaty of Versailles that ended World War I; the German's lack of faith in democracy and the reasons behind it; the corruption and mismanagement that characterized the Weimar Republic, as democratic Germany was called; the hyperinflation of the early 1920s, during which the German currency lost 99.3% of its value in just 12 weeks and the cost of eggs soared to 80 billion marks each; the Great Depression, during which nearly a quarter of the German work force was unemployed; the political and economic instability of the times, in which the Nazis thrived; and the evil genius of Adolf Hitler, master politician. Why Hitler? transports the reader back to the Germany of the 1920s and 1930s, to a time when a country and a civilization began its apocalyptic descent.
