Living with Hitler: Accounts of Hitlers Household Staff
Categories: Kindle Store, Kindle eBooks, Biographies & Memoirs

This collection paints a picture of Hitler from members of his household in the unique position of being seemingly ever-present, yet totally unconnected to events.The reader is introduced to Hitler&apos;s Bodyguard Karl Krause (1934-39), his house administrator Herbert Dhring (1935-43) and chambermaid Anna Plaim (1941-43). From these accounts we get a deeper sense of Hitler in close proximity.These accounts massively add to our understanding of Hitler as a three dimensional character, especially from subjects like Plaim who only knew Hitler&apos;s home life, having rarely left Berghof.The series is able to shed light on his likes and dislikes from foods to his hobbies, creating a strange sense of humanity. This collection also provides the reader with fresh anecdotes, observations and portraits of Hitler&apos;s entourage and relatives. Plaim&apos;s images of Eva Braun come from finding torn fragments in the bin, whilst Dhring sheds light on Martin Bormann&apos;s demeanour.
