German leader Adolf Hitler (1889-1945) was one of the most
controversial politicians and military commanders in all recorded
history. As such, his life was conspired against by all manner of
enemies, both foreign and domestic: German and Russian Communists,
political and military opponents, rival Nazi leaders, and the
intelligence services of the Allied powers, among them the British
SOE. Dozens of attempts were made on his life over the course of
two decades, including a bomb explosion in his own headquarters-and
yet, he survived them all. This is the story of how he did so, as
told via the exciting sagas of Sepp Dietrich and his SS, as well as
of German government security leader Johann Rattenhuber and his
Reich Security Service, the RSD. Here we see the measures used to
protect Hitler in public, his cars, planes, trains, homes, military
headquarters scattered across conquered Europe, and during personal
appearances. Ironically, of course, in the end Hitler decided to
take his own life in the infamous Berlin bunker, but this is the
story of how a man that so many people wanted dead managed to stay
alive for so long in volatile circumstances.
