From acclaimed historian Michael Brenner, a mesmerizing portrait of
Munich in the early years of Hitler's quest for power In the
aftermath of Germany's defeat in World War I and the failed
November Revolution of 1918-19, the conservative government of
Bavaria identified Jews with left-wing radicalism. Munich became a
hotbed of right-wing extremism, with synagogues under attack and
Jews physically assaulted in the streets. It was here that Adolf
Hitler established the Nazi movement and developed his antisemitic
ideas. Michael Brenner provides a gripping account of how Bavaria's
capital city became the testing ground for Nazism and the Final
Solution. In an electrifying narrative that takes readers from
Hitler's return to Munich following the armistice to his calamitous
Beer Hall Putsch in 1923, Brenner demonstrates why the city's
transformation is crucial for understanding the Nazi era and the
tragedy of the Holocaust. Brenner describes how Hitler and his
followers terrorized Munich's Jews and were aided by politicians,
judges, police, and ordinary residents. He shows how the city's
Jews responded to the antisemitic backlash in many different
ways-by declaring their loyalty to the state, by avoiding public
life, or by abandoning the city altogether. Drawing on a wealth of
previously unknown documents, In Hitler's Munich reveals the untold
story of how a once-cosmopolitan city became, in the words of
Thomas Mann, "the city of Hitler."
