2016 Edition with a new preface by Gregory Eggleston Adolf Hitler, who was the leader of Germany between 1933 and 1945, used various means to rise to power and maintain his power. He provided simple solutions to Germany's many problems. His main aims were to achieve autarky (self-sufficiency), increase Germany's land and create the Third Reich, and by doing so undo the Treaty of Versailles. By carrying out these actions, he would restore Germany to its former glory and create a huge power base for himself. The economic and political situation of Germany during the early 1930s, including the high unemployment and political dissatisfaction, helped Hitler to gain his power. He used clever politics, such as his Enabling Act and the elimination of opposition to turn Germany in to a totalitarian state. He then used propaganda, and violence along with various military and economic successes to ensure the maintenance of his popularity, and therefore power. According to historian Ian Kershaw 'without the unique conditions in which he came to power, Hitler would have been nothing ... He exploited the conditions brilliantly.'

Mein Kampf ('My Struggle') is a political manifesto written by Adolf Hitler. It was his only complete book and became the bible of National Socialism in the German Third Reich. It was published in two volumes, which dated 1925 and 1927. By 1939 it had sold 5,200,000 copies and had been translated into 11 different languages. The first volume, entitled Die Abrechnung ('The Settlement of Accounts,' or 'Revenge'), was written in 1924 in the Bavarian fortress of Landsberg am Lech. Hitler was imprisoned there after the unsuccessful Beer Hall Putsch of 1923. It describes the world of Hitlers youth, the First World War and the betrayal of Germany in 1918. It also expresses Hitlers Racial ideology. According to Hitler, it was necessary for Germans to occupy themselves not merely with the breeding of cats, dogs and horses - but also care for the health and wellbeing of their own Bloodline. The second volume, entitled Die Nationalsozialistische Bewegung ('The National Socialist Movement'), was written after Hitlers release from prison in December 1924. It outlines the political program of National Socialism and includes the measures that National Socialism must pursue in both gaining power and in exercising it thereafter in the new German Reich. In this book Hitler describes an ideology which according to him must shake the world from its slumber. An ideology which is based on the Eternal Laws of Nature. Here you can notice how the foundations of Social Darwinism have been applied in practice. This book has set a path toward a much higher understanding of the self and of our magnificent destiny as living beings part of this Race on our planet. It shows us that we must not look at nature in terms of good or bad, but in an unfiltered manner. It describes what we must do if we want to survive as a people and as a Race. We have to understand that Nature does not forgive weakness and that the truth and reality is what it is, no matter how bad it may seem or how hard it can portray

In 1922, just four years after the war to end all wars, an unknown Austrian then living in Bavaria planned a pamphlet to be called Settling Accounts. In it he intended to attack the ineffectiveness of the dominant political parties in Germany which were opposed to the new National Socialists (Nazis). In November 1923, Adolf Hitler was jailed for the abortive Munich Beer Hall putsch along with men willing and able to assist him with his writing. With the help of these collaborators, chief among them Rudolf Hess, the pamphlet became a book. Settling Accounts became Mein Kampf, an unparalleled example of muddled economics and history, appalling bigotry, and an intense self-glorification of Adolf Hitler as the true founder and builder of the National Socialist movement. It was written in hate and it contained a blueprint for violent bloodshed. When Mein Kampf was published in 1925, it was a failure. In 1926 a second volume appeared - it was no more successful than the first. People either laughed at it or ignored it. They were wrong to do so. As Hitler's power increased, pressure was put on all party members to buy the book. Gradually this pressure was extended to all elements of the German population. Soon Mein Kampf was even being passed out to newlywed couples as a gift. Ironically, and frighteningly, by the time Hitler came to power on January 30, 1933, what has been considered by many to be the most satanic book ever written was running neck and neck with the Bible at the top of the German bestseller lists. In his excellent introduction to this definitive American translation of Mein Kampf, Konrad Heiden writes: 'For years Mein Kampf stood as proof of the blindness and complacency of the world. For in its pages Hitler announced -- long before he came to power -- a program of blood and terror in a self-revelation of such overwhelming frankness that few among its readers had the courage to believe it ... That such a man could go so far toward realizing his ambitions, and -- above all -- could find millions of willing tools and helpers; that is a phenomenon the world will ponder for centuries to come.' We would be wrong in thinking that such a program, such a man, and such appalling consequences could not reappear in our world of the present. We cannot permit our selves the luxury of forgetting the tragedy of World War II or the man who, more than any other, fostered it. Mein Kampf must be read and constantly remembered as a specimen of evil demagoguery that people whenever men grow tired of thinking and acting for themselves. Mein Kampf is a blueprint for the age of chaos. It transcends in historical importance any other book of the present generation. In his translation Ralph Manheim has taken particular care to give an exact English equivalent of Hitler's highly individual, and often awkward style, including his occasional grammatical errors. We believe this book should stand as the complete, final, and definitive English version of Hitler's own story of his life, his political philosophy, and his thwarted plans for world domination.

In 1925 a thirty-five year-old Adolf Hitler, veteran of World War One, was the leader of an emerging political party who had staged a failed coup and, as a result, found himself locked up in a German prison. By July of that year he had dictated the text of his first book to Comrade Rudolph Hess in their shared cell. The two men later completed what would become Hitler's manifesto at a Bavarian Tavern. Mein Kampf fast became a German bestseller and clearly reflected the mood of the people at the time, namely a dissatisfaction with their government's immigration policy. Mein Kampf reflects Hitler's personal ideology as a young man and outlined his ideas for the German Reich. Chillingly, it also demonstrates how a largely peaceful nation of people can move very quickly to the right wing when challenged and the book soon became one of the most popular texts in the whole of Germany. The question is, is history going to repeat itself...?

The complete works of Adolf Hitler, Mein Kampf, in detailing his ideology with National Socialist principles (nazismus) There is no doubt that this book represents the theses contaminated by a person subjugated Europe bringing it almost to the brink of a general abyss. The reader has before him psychopathic arguments of a sick mentality by which, used as oral arms, dragging knew a German population to self-destruction. Essential book to understand the Holocaust or Shoah. index: MY STRUGGLE AUTHOR'S PREFACE VOLUME ONE, 'RETROSPECT' CHAPTER ONE: 'IN THE HOME OF MY PARENTS CHAPTER TWO: 'YEARS OF SUFFERING IN VIENNA' CHAPTER THREE: POLITICAL REFLECTIONS OF THE TIME OF MY STAY IN VIENNA CHAPTER FOUR: MUNICH CHAPTER FIVE: WORLD WAR CHAPTER SIX: PROPAGANDA WAR CHAPTER SEVEN: THE REVOLUTION CHAPTER EIGHT: INITIATION OF MY POLITICAL ACTIVITY CHAPTER NINE: THE GERMAN WORKERS' PARTY CHAPTER TEN: THE CAUSES OF THE DISASTER CHAPTER ELEVEN: NATIONALITY AND RACE CHAPTER TWELVE: THE FIRST PHASE OF DEVELOPMENT OF THE NATIONAL SOCIALIST GERMAN WORKERS PARTY VOLUME TWO: THE NATIONAL SOCIALIST MOVEMENT CHAPTER ONE: IDEOLOGY AND PARTY CHAPTER TWO: THE STATE CHAPTER THREE: SUBJECTS AND CITIZENS CHAPTER FOUR: PERSONALITY AND NATIONALIST CONCEPTION OF THE STATE CHAPTER FIVE: IDEOLOGY AND ORGANIZATION CHAPTER SIX: OUR STRUGGLE IN THE EARLY DAYS.

Adolf Hitler's Autobiography - Volume 2 I began my sentence in the Fortress of Landsberg on the Lech, April 1, 1924 resulting from my sentence handed down from the Munich People's Court. For the first time in my years of uninterrupted Party work, I was finally able to begin a job that many had asked me to complete and one which I myself felt was useful for the Movement. I decided to write two volumes which would not only explain the aims of our Movement, but also would reveal the birth of the Movement. I believe my story will be more beneficial than a simple historical description. This work will allow me to describe my own growth in the Movement and assist in crushing the falsehoods about me created by the Jewish press. My writing is not for strangers, but for those heart-strong supporters of the Movement, and those whose minds need enlightenment. I know that men are more rarely won over by the written word than they are by the spoken word and that every great movement in this world owes its growth to great speakers, not to great writers. Still, writing is necessary to create a unified doctrine we can distribute. I must lay down its principles for all time. These two volumes, then, are meant to serve as stones which I hereby add to the foundation of the Movement. Adolf Hitler
