October 20, 2017The book was basically about how hitlers childhood went and that he wasnt a very good person. Then it talked about the economy of germany after world war 1. Then it talked about how he formed the nazi party and how he built his way up to being the leader of the party and how he had struggles to go along with it. Then it talks about how the nazis would treat the jews badly and how the holocaust started. Then it cuts to war and talks about the fall of the nazis.
