"The great masses of the people will more easily fall victim to a
big lie than to a small one." Adolf Hitler The only edition of Mein
Kampf officially sanctioned by the Nazi Foreign Office in the
English language was the edition translated and introduced by James
Murphy. The illustrated edition using his translation was first
published in the UK in 1939 in 22 weekly parts by Hutchison and Co
Ltd. This authentic edition brings together that entire series
complete with Murphy's 1939 introduction and a new introduction by
Emmy AwardTM winning historian Bob Carruthers, and includes over
250 photographs. Murphy's was the only translation which was
officially endorsed by the Nazi party during Hitler's lifetime and
as such represents an opportunity to approach the work as it was
presented to contemporary readers. This was the version of 'Mein
Kampf' which the Nazi party hoped would spread the gospel of
National Socialism throughout the UK, but by the time publication
was underway World War II had commenced. Somewhat surprisingly,
publication of the weekly illustrated edition was allowed to
continue although all proceeds from the sale were diverted to the
British Red Cross. This new publication of the entire primary
source provides the reader with access to the complete historical
document and provides a unique insight into the past by reproducing
'Mein Kampf' as it was presented to British readers in the
thirties.
For the first time in 65 years, a modern, easy to understand, truly
complete, accurate and uncensored edition of Mein Kampf has been
released which reveals more than any past translation. Older
translations altered passages, omitted passages, mistranslated
Hitler's words, made some parts more sensational while concealing
the true meaning in other parts of the book. If you have read one
of these older translations of Mein Kampf, then you have not read
the REAL Mein Kampf which is found only in this new special edition
hardcover Ford Translation. Mein Kampf is often portrayed as
nothing more than an Anti-Semitic work, however only 6% of it even
talks about the Jews. The rest contains Hitler's ideas and beliefs
for a greater nation plus his plan on how to accomplish that goal.
The majority of the work involves Hitler's discussion of the German
people's difficult times after the First World War, his political
theories and his organization of the Nazi Party, as well as many
attacks against his enemies which makes it a very interesting and
moving story. Mein Kampf offers an interesting interpretation of
politics, people, and foreign policy matters. To characterize it as
simply a racist work is to oversimplify its message. Germany did
not follow Hitler because he was a racist, they followed him
because he promised a great future, and Mein Kampf is where he
promised that great future. This Ford Translation offers: The most
accurate translation ever produced. Phrases that are translated
with precision and with no translator's bias. Uncommon words are
replaced with more common and more meaningful terms. Any references
to unfamiliar people, or places are explained in the text. This
version is complete with all original passages and references
restored, including passages omitted from other popular versions
and passages censored by the Nazi government during the print
history of the book. **This translation has corrected over 1000
errors which were present in past translations.** No English reader
has been able to appreciate these subtleties in any previous
English translation, not until the Ford Translation. This hardback
version is also available in an audio format. Get your copy now and
find out what deep desires truly drove Hitler.
