Stolfi's Remarkable Book About Hitler

... Adolf Hitler was a formidable
political organizer who took over a miniscule Bavarian debating club
and turned it into the largest political party in Germany ... When he
became Chancellor, Hitler proved a formidable statesman, transforming
Germany with a virtually bloodless revolution and recovering German
lands and pride through a series of deft foreign policy triumphs until
the British and French started a World War to stop him ... Stolfi
points out again and again that Hitler refused to behave like a
politician. Hitler never compromised on basic principles ... This book
is even more remarkable because it is the work of a mainstream military
historian.
A Startling New Look at Hitler and His Place in History

The "standard" biographies of
Adolf Hitler are inadequate and fundamentally flawed, says American
historian Russell Stolfi in a remarkable new book, Hitler: Beyond Evil and Tyranny.
The mass media and even supposedly scholarly works portray the German
leader as a monstrous, criminal demagogue who was driven by irrational
hatred and lust for power. In fact, contends Stolfi, Hitler was a
prophetic, messianic and visionary figure who should be understood
along with such personalities as Julius Caesar, Napoleon, Mohammed and
Jesus.

Hitler: Beyond Evil and Tyranny
Russell H. S. Stolfi -- Book Available from IHR
http://ihr-store.com//ihrstore/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_8&products_id=137
This richly detailed work takes a
boldly dissident look at the personality and historical role of Adolf
Hitler. Prof. Stolfi reinterprets the known facts about the German
leader to construct a convincing, realistic portrait of the man. Unlike
most profiles, which are relentlessly hostile and focus on recounting
his deeds in detail, this fascinating work seeks to provide a nuanced
understanding of Hitler's character, outlook and motives. It
is a major mistake to compare Hitler to the typical politician or
statesman of the modern age. Instead, Stolfi emphasizes, he should be
understood as a world-historical religious figure or prophet. With dust jacket, 16 photographs, source notes, and index.

'Farewell To Hitler': A 1945 German Newspaper Commentary
Hermann Okrass - Hamburger Zeitung (May 2, 1945)
http://www.calvin.edu/academic/cas/gpa/hitlers-death.htm... Will posterity be able to understand him fully? It is hard for contemporaries to pass judgment about someone of their own era, particularly if it is one as unique as Adolf Hitler. Posterity sees the great from a distance, reads his words, reads our words, but it cannot understand the world of our day in all of its breadth. One can only hope that they believe the great words of the great man ... That little minds darkened the image of his clear will, that traitors and bad counselors deserted and betrayed him, that finally he was overcome by a great superiority of steel and money, that cannot change the image of him that is in the deepest heart of our people.
