Hitler is seen with his SS men, during speeches, but he is also seen visiting with, smiling and touching men, women, children and his old World War I comrades in stark contrast to the image one sees of him today on cable TV.

Hitler's service in World War I is well covered in text and photographs as is the first Reichsparteitag (Nazi Party Day) in January 1923 and his 1924 trial and subsequent term in prison.

This is a remarkable, rare Third Reich photo document, the majority of the photos taken by Heinrich Hoffmann, Hitler's personal photographer.

This 82 year old example is complete and in used condition. The damage that is visible on the right edge of the cover affects the right edge of every page, but none of the fantastic photo content.

This is an original example of the huge 10-1/2 x 14-1/2 inch, very heavily illustrated 96 page softcover book ADOLF HITLER - EIN MANN UND SEIN VOLK (Adolf Hitler - A Man and his Nation) as published by Verlag Franz Eher, Nachfolger (the Central Publishing House of the Nazi Party) in München (Munich) for the Illustrierter Beobachter (Illustrated Observer Newspaper) in 1936.

Starting with pictures from the earliest moments in the political life of Adolf Hitler (1914 - 1920) this Third Reich publication concentrates on the seldom seen personal side of the everyday life of Germany's 23rd Chancellor.

The photos of the historical artifacts in the NSDAP archive (Rehse Sammlung) in the Braunes Haus are fascinating, as are those of new Nazi Party construction, Hitler campaigning for Nazi Party candidates for the Reichstag, the Ordensburg Vogelsang, the Wehrmacht, etc. There are photos showing the change is Hitler between 1916 and 1936, Hitler in and around the Berghof, sculptor Hedwig Maria Ley working on a Hitler bust, Hitler surrounded by jubilant fans, Hitler in his campaign aircraft and aboard a Mitropa train, at Tannenberg Memorial, etc.

There are photos of Chancellor Hitler with many of his cabinet ministers and party leaders: Reichsführer-SS Heinrich Himmler, Rudolf Hess, Field Marshal Hermann Göring, Dr. Robert Ley, Dr. Fritz Todt, Baldur von Schirach, Dr. Joseph Goebbels, Dr. Hans Frank, Dr. Wilhelm Frick, Franz Ritter von Epp, Reichsleiter Philipp Bouhler, and more.
