Hitler, His Life and His Speeches
For 90 years historians believed that the first book Hitler ever wrote was Mein Kampf, its 1925 autobiography. But research by Professor Thomas Weber has shown he also published something else two years before Mein KampF. The reason this other book went under the radar for so long is that Hitler published it under someone else's name. In it, Hitler directly compares his own political rise to Jesus' resurrection. His late mother Clara was extremely pious and raised her son Adolf as a Catholic. Now two decades later, the complex legacy of Hitler's Christian upbringing is finding form.
