Christopher R. Browning Reviews Volker Ullrich's, Hitler: Ascent, 1889-1939

Following-up from last month, "Richard J. Evans Reviews Volker Ullrich's, Hitler: Ascent, 1889-1939."

At the New York Review of Books, "Lessons from Hitler’s Rise."

I'm fascinated by the Trump/Hitler comparisons, mainly because they're so stupid and outlandish. Barack Obama was more a threat to the American democracy than is Donald Trump, but leftists are so blinkered it just never occurs to them.

In any case, I do hope to read Ullrich's book soon, although I'll probably wait until it's out in paper.
