Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler (Book Analysis): Detailed Summary, Analysis and Reading Guide
()
About this ebook
This engaging summary presents an analysis of Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler, which was written during Hitler’s incarceration in Landsberg Prison and contains a detailed expression of his political thought. Though its virulent anti-Semitism and diatribes against parliamentary documentary may be shocking to contemporary readers, an estimated ten million copies of Mein Kampf were sold in Germany between its publication in 1925-1926 and 1945, and at one point it was given out as a wedding present from the government of the Third Reich. Nowadays, the book has value as a historical document, as it provides a revealing insight into the ideological underpinnings of Nazism and Hitler’s political strategy. Adolf Hitler was the leader of the Nazi Party and Führer of the Third Reich from 1934 to 1945. He transformed Germany into a totalitarian dictatorship and is directly responsible for one of the most infamous genocides in history, the Holocaust.

Mein Kampf by Adolf Hitler (Book Analysis) - Bright Summaries
Führer and Chancellor of the Third Reich
Born in Braunau am Inn, Austria-Hungary in 1889.
Died in Berlin in 1945.
Adolf Hitler was born in Austria-Hungary in 1889, before moving to Germany with his family at the age of five. He lost his parents at a young age and was something of a misfit during his childhood and adolescence. He dreamed of becoming an architect and applied to the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna on multiple occasions, but was rejected each time. After the First World War, which he fought in, he went into politics and soon became the leader of the National Socialist German Workers Party.
In 1923, he wrote Mein Kampf (My Struggle
), which set out the ideological underpinnings of Nazism. He put these ideas into practice ten years later when he became Chancellor of the Third Reich and established a totalitarian regime in Germany. He gave himself the title Führer (Leader
) and extended his domination across Europe during the Second World War.
