Hitler: A Global
Biography
Description
'A powerful new biography.'―Timothy Snyder, New York Times'This vivid and painstakingly
researched volume revises fundamentally how historians ought to view the geopolitical motivations
of the Nazi leader. Simms argues that Hitler did not see the Soviet Union as the primary obstacle
to his expansionist ambitions. From the start, his real enemies were the United Kingdom and the
United States.... Engaging and essential reading for anyone interested in Hitler's policymaking.'―
Foreign Affairs'[Hitler] challenges some of our longstanding ideas about the man who ruled Nazi
Germany between 1933 and 1945...Highly provocative.'―Financial Times'[Simms] builds on
previous scholarship to make a bold thesis-that Hitler's principal obsession was not communism
but rather 'Anglo-America' and global capitalism...A vigorous, original study that adds to the
ongoing scholarship.'―Kirkus'A radically new assessment of the Fuhrer's world view and the
motivation for his plunging the world into a terminal struggle for survival.'―Daily Mail
'Simms...challeng[es] much recent scholarship...A preoccupation with Anglo-American capitalism,
he contends, drove the Third Reich's ideology in its formative years, more than the oft-cited
obsession with Bolshevism...He has made sound use of the Bavarian archives.'―Observer
'If many Hitler books are scarcely worth reading, this one commands attention through its
originality and sheer intelligence...A thoroughly thought-provoking, stimulating biography which all
historians of the Third Reich will have to take seriously.'―Irish Times'Impressive and
intriguing...By drawing our attention to the centrality of historical emigration to Hitler's racial vision
of a Great Germany, Simms adds a new dimension to our understanding of the thinking that drove
history's most notorious figure. Crisply written and well-researched, there is much in this book that
enlightens and stimulates.'―The Interpreter'Simms argues forcefully that [Hitler's] primary
motivation was a fear that Germany would be crushed by the Anglo-Saxon capitalism epitomised
by the US and the British Empire.'―History Today'A pathbreaking and elegantly written account
of Hitler and his foreign policy that is rooted in the existing literature but goes beyond it to make
new claims. Simms marshals considerable evidence to show that Hitler was more preoccupied
with a worldwide struggle with America and Britain then he was by Jews and Bolshevism. His
claims of Aryan racial superiority masked concerns about German inferiority; he hoped to improve
the 'racial stock' by positive as well as negative eugenics. Simms rejects revisionist claims that see
Hitler's foreign policy as constrained or compelled by German society and institutions. A must read
for anyone interested in the Third Reich and the long shadow it cast over the 20th century.'―
