Plotting Hitler's Death

‘Joachim C. Fest… has written a book that combines the virtues of intellectual and narrative organisation with the attractions of bravura, and will clearly influence a whole generation of readers.’

Michael Ratcliffe, THE TIMES

‘The best single volume available on tortuous life and savage reign of Adolf Hitler; Fest tells the story as no non-German could, dispassionately, but from inside.’

TIME

‘Fest’s constant probing for insights into the nature of modern totalitarianism gives his book a unique and powerful intensity.’
