                  Hitler, Adolf (1889-1945)
                  Founder and leader of the Nazi Party, Reich Chancellor and guiding spirit of the Third
                  Reich from 1933 to 1945, Head of State and Supreme Commander of the Armed Forces,
                  Adolf Hitler was born in Braunau am Inn, Austria, on 20 April 1889. The son of a
                  fifty-two-year-old Austrian customs official, Alois Schickelgruber Hitler, and his third wife, a
                  young peasant girl, Klara Poelzl, both from the backwoods of lower Austria, the young
                  Hitler was a resentful, discontented child. Moody, lazy, of unstable temperament, he was
                  deeply hostile towards his strict, authoritarian father and strongly attached to his
                  indulgent, hard-working mother, whose death from cancer in December 1908 was a
                  shattering blow to the adolescent Hitler.

                  After spending four years in the Realschule in Linz, he left school at the age of sixteen
                  with dreams of becoming a painter. In October 1907 the provincial, middle-class boy left
                  home for Vienna, where he was to remain until 1913 leading a bohemian, vagabond
                  existence. Embittered at his rejection by the Viennese Academy of Fine Arts, he was to
                  spend 'five years of misery and woe' in Vienna as he later recalled, adopting a view of life
                  which changed very little in the ensuing years, shaped as it was by a pathological hatred
                  of Jews and Marxists, liberalism and the cosmopolitan Habsburg monarchy.

                  Existing from hand to mouth on occasional odd jobs and the hawking of sketches in low
                  taverns, the young Hitler compensated for the frustrations of a lonely bachelor's life in
                  miserable male hostels by political harangues in cheap cafes to anyone who would listen
                  and indulging in grandiose dreams of a Greater Germany.

                  In Vienna he acquired his first education in politics by studying the demagogic techniques
                  of the popular Christian-social Mayor, Karl Lueger, and picked up the stereotyped,
                  obsessive anti-semitism with its brutal, violent ...
