“Adolf Hitler: A Life From Beginning To End” by Hourly History Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Here’s my first non-fiction of 2025! This is a fascinating and concise read on the life of Adolf Hitler which serves as an excellent introduction to his history and impact. The book explores: 1. Hitler’s Early Years 2. Hitler’s Years in Vienna 3. Hitler’s Life after Vienna 4. Hitler’s Early Military Career 5. The Formation of the Nazi Party 6. Hitler’s Imprisonment and Subsequent Rise to Power 7. World War 2 8. Conclusion I've heard a great deal about Hitler being a monster but I never really fished into the specifics of his cruelty until now. The author briefly mentioned the tortures/ horrors endured by people during World War 2 in the final chapter “Conclusion” which is hair-raising. Even the children were not spared from these atrocities. Gas chambers, starvation, infecting diseases, freezing, exposure to mustard gas, injecting dyes into the eyes, removal of bone, nerve and muscle tissues from various parts of the bodies and repeatedly hitting children in the heads with hammers!!! It’s incredibly heart-breaking to reflect on the sufferings of the victims of World War 2. My mind shall be occupied with these horrors for the next few days. Recommended for anyone who’s seeking an introduction to Adolf Hitler ! “Never in History has such ruination (physical and moral) been associated with the name of one man.” - a Historian “For evil to flourish, it only requires good men to do nothing.” - a Surviver of the Holocaust “I do not see why a man should not be just as cruel as nature.” - Adolf Hitler
