Description

Martin Bormann: Hitler's Executioner By Volker Koop, published by Frontline Books in 2020. This biography explores the rise to power of Martin Bormann, one of the most feared men in Nazi Germany. Born in 1900, Bormann became a key figure in the Nazi Party, manipulating the power struggle within its ranks to achieve his position as Chief of Cabinet and eventually Hitler's deputy. As the head of the Party Chancellery, Bormann consolidated his power base, becoming indispensable to Hitler. Bormann's role in the Nazi regime was marked by ruthlessness and a commitment to Hitler's ideology on racial politics and forced labor. He played a crucial part in shaping Germany's domestic affairs during World War II, and his influence grew as Hitler became increasingly preoccupied with military matters. This book sheds light on Bormann's complex and often sinister character, revealing the man behind the myth of the Nazi Party. With the Third Reich collapsing in 1945, Bormann returned to the Führerbunker, where he played a key role in the final days of Hitler's rule. Following the Führer's suicide, Bormann was appointed Party Minister, cementing his position as one of the most powerful men in Nazi Germany.
