The Fall Of Adolf Hitler

The story of Adolf Hitler was an intriguing one. The story of a man, driven by the hatred for his vision of the inferior people, to become the dictator of Germany and leader of the infamous Nazi party. Hitler’s story starts in the small village of Braunau Am Inn, in 1889. He is given the talent of making wonderful pieces of art, but soon loses motivation to follow this passion after his mother dies, in December 21, 1907, and he fails to get into the Vienna Art School, in 1900.

He went to the meeting and is told to read a pamphlet and is interested in the group because in the pamphlet, the political ideas and beliefs stated in the pamphlet are similar to those that Hitler holds himself. The political ideas shared between Hitler and Drexler, the author of the pamphlet, included building a strong nationalist, anti-semitic, pro-military party made up of working class people. The German Worker’s Party mainly consisted of mainly an executive committee which consisted of seven people, including Adolf Hitler. Hitler stuck with this group and attended many meetings. The German Worker’s Party finally started to hold public meetings to get more attention and gain followers. The group saved up money and printed leaflets and pamphlets to give to attendee, and posters to advertise this public meeting.
