Interesing avenue of thought. Hitler also hid much of his background and real beliefs, creating a public persona that was very different from the private or real one. “The Pink Swastika” (online) by Scott Lively and Kevin Abrams sheds a lot of light on the beginnings and foundation of the roots of the Nazi Party and Hitler himself, as does “Hidden Hitler” by Lothar - oops, can’t remember his last name, a German historian. But the German public certainly had no idea of who Hitler really was, his private beliefs, statements and habits.
I mark us as being around January 1933 right now. 75 years!
