Synopsis

A history of the fateful month that gave rise to the most destructive leader of the 20th-century. Henry Ashby Turner provides an account of the events that culminated in Adolf Hitler's taking power in January of 1933. He shows how luck, political intrigue, and the personal weaknesses of Hitler's more powerful, traditional conservative opponents paved the way to his Chancellorship. Turner also seeks to re-establish the importance of individual actors in the unfolding of historical events.
