They are the long-lost secret diaries that will give new and extraordinary insights into Adolf Hitler's private life.

In a world publishing coup, decades after being lost, the discovery of the intimate and horrifying leather-bound journal by the Mail is set to cause a global sensation.

The handwritten diaries will give never-before-seen insights into Hitler's life as the most evil man in history launched the Second World War.

Later today MailOnline will begin to showcase these diaries for the first time after more than 80 years, offering a treasure trove to historians.

Whose diary is this? The article doesn’t say, telling me it’s from a nobody.

The cover also says “year by year” in it in English.

I’m calling shenanigans

This was a story maybe 45 or 50 years ago. They were proven to be forgeries.

Is this a new find, or are they recycling the same scam banking nobody will remember?

That was my very first observation. If authentic it should read: “von Jahr zu Jahr”.
Thank you Google translate.

Given they don’t say who is the author (and the cover is in English), this is probably real, but from someone who barely knew or saw Hitler.

"The cover also says “year by year” in it in English."

Yeah, that seems a bit odd, doesn't it?

I give the UK papers a lot of credit. They will often report on things the US papers would prefer to keep hidden.

But they sure do like their sensational, clickbait headlines. As you noted, there is no mention of the author of the diary. I suppose it will turn out to be the next door neighbor of Hitler’s cook. Something like that.

Because a lot of experts stated that the last "Hitler Diaries" were legitimate, of course!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hitler_Diaries

The Hitler Diaries (Hitler-Tagebücher) were a series of sixty volumes of journals purportedly written by Adolf Hitler, but forged by Konrad Kujau between 1981 and 1983. The diaries were purchased in 1983 for 9.3 million Deutsche Marks (£2.3 million or $3.7 million) by the West German news magazine Stern, which sold serialisation rights to several news organisations.

The Mitford sisters were quite famous. One of them, who was living in Germany, attempted suicide when war broke out, and rather than being detained as an enemy alien, Hitler had her transported to Switzerland. P.G. Wodehouse was never so lucky.

After 80 years? I hope they will be better forgeries than the obama birth certificate or the Trump Dossier.

This is doubtful, for the leather does not appear to be old and “Year by Year” is in English.

The most evil man in history? Hitler was certainly very evil. But the most evil, well if you go back into history there’s likely others that compare. And what about Stalin and Mao, in terms of people killed they are likely worse.

It might be good fiction reading, as in a novel, but in terms of accurate history, no thanks.

“The most evil man in history?”

A piker compared to Stalin or Mao!

Small potatoes compared to Ghengis Khan.

No contest compared to Mohammed!

“The Mitford sisters were quite famous. One of them, who was living in Germany, attempted suicide when war broke out, and rather than being detained as an enemy alien, Hitler had her transported to Switzerland. P.G. Wodehouse was never so lucky.’

The diary being discussed is that of the Mitford sister who attempted suicide.

The Mitford sisters met Hitler at the Nuremburg rally of 1933, too late to fill certain lacunae in his history that still remain. Biographer Thomas Weber, for example, points out a sudden change in Hitler's antisemitic rhetoric in early 1923 from garden-variety German stuff to something murderous that Weber couldn't correlate with any specific event. But something changed. Further, the material carefully left out of Mein Kampf paints a picture far more sordid than the contents: Hitler's association with the Communist government that briefly ruled Bavaria in the spring of 1919, for example. This diary, if genuine, won't be able to fill in those blanks, unfortunately.

if you get a chance watch the BBC production - Mosley. (Note: I question some of its historical accuracy!) Be that as it may, the series has an interesting take on Mitford sisters. The glamour gals of the 1920s-1930s of the UK upper class. Viewed as the most beautiful six women of the “Smart Set” of the Empire. I see the same type of mindless celebrity worship\infatuation here played out with “fill-in-the-blank” your favorite celebrity - Kardashians might be an example.

I checked article, to find out if this was actually gaslighting about Trump.
