Produktbeschreibung
Adolf Hitler died in the Berlin bunker in 1945. His trail was erased, today there is neither a grave nor a memorial to visit. But what happened to his family, those condemned to be part of a cursed lineage and burdened with a surname synonymous with evil? Answering this question was the motivation of journalist and writer David Gardner before embarking on an exhaustive search and investigation of the bearers of the Führer's surname. The result is unprecedented access to the lives of the dictator's siblings and relatives, uncovering secrets and intriguing details about a childhood marked by abuse and complicated family relationships. Alois Hitler, Adolf's father, emerges as a shadowy figure, an Austrian customs official whose tendency towards alcoholism made him an authoritarian and violent father. Through meticulous research, Gardner reveals the fate of Hitler's brothers: some managed to survive and settle in America, while others fell into the shadow of their brother's infamous legacy. This book not only sheds light on a little-known part of the dictator's past, it is also an exceptional chronicle of the tracing and contact with the survivors of a lineage that many believed to be extinct.
