Hitler: Communists Munich
built 254 days ago
Like military leaders of the past and present, Hitler thought of God as on his side. On January 1, 1932, Hitler told a Munich audience that God was on his side in the battle for a better world. [Toland p.260]

Hitler's niece Geli Raubal was found dead in her bedroom in his Munich apartment (his half-sister Angela and her daughter Geli had been with him in Munich since 1929), an apparent suicide. Geli, who was believed to be in some sort of romantic relationship with Hitler, was 19 years younger than he was and had used his gun. His niece's death is viewed as a source of deep, lasting pain for him.[34]

One who was not influenced by Stresemann's actions in Saxony and Thuringia was Adolf Hitler. He planned for his coup and march to Berlin to begin on November 8 - the fifth anniversary of the first soviet takeover in Munich. In the evening of that day, Hitler's troops surrounded the town hall where Kahr was to speak. Hitler and a few others entered the crowded hall, Hitler wearing his Iron Cross and carrying a revolver. He shoot a round into the ceiling to get attention. Hitler's troops blocked the hall's doors.

In March 1939 a book appeared titled The Strange Death of Adolf Hitler. It alleged that Hitler had died of poisoning in 1938, shortly before the Munich Conference. The book's anonymous author claimed to be one of four doubles who had immediately taken Hitler's place. Since Hitler appeared to be alive and well until 1945, this book was presumably a hoax. Oddly, the premature report of his death in 1938 was mirrored by consistent rumors about his survival after 1945.
For a long time historians and other commentators took it for granted that Hitler's wishes and ambitions and ideology were clearly (and frighteningly) set forth in Mein Kampf. In the first, autobiographical, portion of Mein Kampf... he twisted the truth in at least three matters: his relationship to his father (which was very different from the filial affection he had set forth in Mein Kampf); the conditions of his life in Vienna (which were less marked by abject poverty than he had stated); and the crystallization of his worldview, including his anti-Semitism, during his Vienna years (the evidence now suggests that this crystallization occurred much later, in Munich).
