Description
Shigeru Mizuki's Hitler is a deeply researched and engaging biography of the man who started the Second World War. Seventy years after his death, Adolf Hitler remains a mystery, and it is only by examining his life in detail that we can begin to understand his motivations and actions. From his time as a starving art student in Austria to his eventual demise, Mizuki's Hitler retraces Hitler's path in life, coolly examining his charismatic appeal and calculated political maneuvering. The book covers key events such as the Munich Beer Putsch, Hitler's ascent to chancellor, the Battle of Stalingrad, and his relationship with Eva Braun, providing a thorough and informative overview of Hitler's life. Mizuki's signature style brings a unique perspective to the biography, combining realistic backgrounds with cartoony people to create an absorbing and eloquent portrait of Hitler's life.
