Features: Krista Schr?der followed Hitler for 12 years, serving him day and night. In the Chancellery, in Berghof, and even in the Berlin bunker, she stayed by his side until just a few days before his death. The formation of Nazism and its expansionist policies, although many historical documents about them are already familiar to us, the true face of this instigator of World War II has always been obscured by fragments of newsreel footage. What we see is only his image screaming madly at the civilized world, while Krista Schr?der's testimony is particularly credible. Krista Schr?der's experience is truly shocking! In 1930, she became one of Germany's 7 million unemployed, but by 1933, she had risen to become Hitler's personal secretary, serving him for 12 years and obeying him day and night. In the Chancellery, in Berghof, and even in the Berlin bunker, she stayed by his side until just a few days before his death. This book is her memoir of these 12 years as his secretary, presenting an unconventional Hitler to us and allowing us to gain a deeper understanding of Hitler and his inner personality.
