About this listen
Based on previously unpublished documents, diaries, notes, photographs, and dramatic interviews with Hitler's colleagues and associates, this is the definitive biography of one of the most despised yet fascinating figures of the 20th century. Painstakingly documented, it is a work that will not soon be forgotten.

This Pulitzer Prize-winning history of World War II chronicles the dramatic rise and fall of the Japanese empire, from the invasion of Manchuria and China to the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Told from the Japanese perspective, The Rising Sun is, in the author’s words, "a factual saga of people caught up in the flood of the most overwhelming war of mankind, told as it happened - muddled, ennobling, disgraceful, frustrating, full of paradox."

Story5 out of 5 stars 13
From the preeminent Hitler biographer, a fascinating and original exploration of how the Third Reich was willing and able to fight to the bitter end of World War II. Countless books have been written about why Nazi Germany lost World War II, yet remarkably little attention has been paid to the equally vital question of how and why it was able to hold out as long as it did.

A dramatic countdown of the final months of World War II in Europe, The Last 100 Days brings to life the waning power and the ultimate submission of the Third Reich. To reconstruct the tumultuous hundred days between Yalta and the fall of Berlin, John Toland traveled more than 100,000 miles in twenty-one countries and interviewed more than six hundred people - from Hitler's personal chauffeur to Generals von Manteuffel, Wenck, and Heinrici.

Volume One of Stalin begins and ends in January 1928 as Stalin boards a train bound for Siberia, about to embark upon the greatest gamble of his political life. He is now the ruler of the largest country in the world, but a poor and backward one, far behind the great capitalist countries in industrial and military power, encircled on all sides. In Siberia, Stalin conceives of the largest program of social reengineering ever attempted.

Here for the first time, in rich human, political, and scientific detail, is the complete story of how the bomb was developed, from the turn-of-the-century discovery of the vast energy locked inside the atom to the dropping of the first bombs on Japan. Few great discoveries have evolved so swiftly - or have been so misunderstood. From the theoretical discussions of nuclear energy to the bright glare of Trinity, there was a span of hardly more than 25 years.

Educational and interesting
Great informative book that is presented well. At first glance it was a bit daunting at over 40 hours but it just flew by.

So detailed!
I loved how detailed this book was. It took me months to get through, as I only have about an hour a day to listen usually, but it was worth it! Recommended for anyone who really wants to supplement their history, and get a more personal perspective on Hitler and his government.

Engaging narration
One of the best narrated books, the voice was like a friend telling me story, I was never bored or tired of listening.
And obviously the story itself is more than interesting specially because it was just telling the story without attempting to show who was the bad guy, leaving that choice to the listener.

This is the one to read
This is the 3rd book I have read about Hitler and it was the most unbiased and the most detailed. However I recommend Albert Speer's book of Hitler who was his best friend and his architect. Speer's angle of view is also very informative and unique.

Very engaging
Detailed and enthralling from beginning to end. The narration was clear and expressive and always engaging. Never a dull moment despite over 40 hours in length.

Just because
This Book was amazing,, It had highly sourced witness interviews and not just an incredibly one sided biased view. There were several accounts that are left out of ordinary historical fact and are severely difficult to go through hoops to get and I was able to find a ton of it in one book, this book.
It now shows as unavailable after I'd listened to it almost 6 times as I found it to be a breath of fresh air from all that nonsense of "most evil" this and that, along with "the diabolical mind of..." it was far from that and rationalized. Not only was the book amazing, But seeing as how this has been deleted, I find it to be simply because of the awakening, as well as the overkill in the mid east. I want my credit back. Also I'd like to see more literature that isn't all one sided and rife with bias and in some accounts woefully inaccurate. I can't see an issue with "'Mein Kampf" it just so happens that it is indeed a historical book in the sense that it was written within it's time! What better way to get a somewhat historical vision, although it may be from a controversial figure, it's not like I'm asking for "the protocols" regarding Bolshevism!
What's more, I'm simply asking Audible to label their books correctly and in fact bring books into the fold rather than ban them just because a certain group that is barely a hair of the earths population gets offended.
What's wrong with learning both sides? Isn't that we do for debate prep? isn't that what we do to ascertain what is fact from fiction, isn't that what we do within the guidelines of questioning?
With all said and done, I'd like my credit refunded, even though I feel it's worth more than just one mere credit. That and I wouldn't mind seeing more books made available regardless of someone finding it offensive or not. If we block books just because people find them offensive, you'll find that a heck of a lot more books will be on the path to be subject for removal.
Not to brag or anything but I have an X account, formerly and I do have above a quarter million absolute loyal followers that do listen to my rants (this rant I have yet to take to my horde) however, if I feel pushback or any type of snarky response, or any type of stereotyping on my end, It may lead me to have a bad taste in my mouth and I won't play nice.
There are titles that I know you've carried in the past and even as recently as the title that was my last straw. If we cannot come to a compromise I will be seeking a more formal interview with someone that perhaps can make things work.
I'm a literary carnivore and if I can't get my fill when my mind is hungry I get really upset, "hangry like"
I hope you can understand.
I will be checking back in and around December 17th 2024, this should provide sufficient time to fix this debacle.

Stellar
An absolutely stellar in depth revelation on the highlights of Hitler's life and impact on world events. Not a cursory one-listen book. This book takes a couple of solid listens in order to grasp the volumes of information contained within. Guaranteed that you will learn more than you ever knew possible. Highly recommended.
