Why didn't the Great Powers' intelligence experts and ambassadors, political observers and behavioural psychologists tell their governments during the 1930s that Adolph Hitler was a threat to humanity? Perhaps they did just that and were ignored. Hitler's intentions and ambitions, his strategy and tactics, his character and personality were all there to be read and analyzed. In his speeches and writings, in his actions and in body language, the dictator was transparently obvious. Yet, this evil man was unopposed as he led his nation into an attempted conquest of Europe and much of the rest of the world. On the way, he planned to exterminate not only the Jews of Europe but all minority groups, whether or not they opposed him. He preached absolute supremacy of the German peoples and believed that on them he could found the "thousand-year reich". During the 1920s and more significantly during the 1930s, how did he get away with it? This book analyzes Hitler's methods of deceit and manipulation and his rise to power. It does this through photographs taken on Hitler's orders, and through texts prepared by Hitler's shrewd propaganda chief, Joseph Goebbels. The pictures were not secret, but most have not previously been published outside Germany. They were certainly available to any agent, journalist or diplomat intent on revealing that the liberal West should not have been surprised by anything that Hitler did. John Laffin is the author of "The World in Conflict Annuals" and "Brassey's Battles".
