National Socialist Workers' party of Germany . Hitler did indeed buy his way into the hearts of the German working class.
He used a potent mix of mass marketing, economic improvements, shameless demagoguery, feverish nationalism and racial prejudice.
In fact, one of the commonly stated reasons why German had not achieved a full war economy before 1944 was Hitler's reluctance to have the German people's standard of living fall

The (so-called) advanced Amazon search engine wouldn't turn up the book title. And doing an author search turned up a different book. Looks like Moslems are hard at work at Amazon. Google actually located it. Same story for this other, older book:
