"The Young Hitler I knew" - by August Kubizek.

Read chapter 7.

I think that settles all accounts ever asked about Hitler's mental health.

Thank you so much for the link you posted yesterday in another thread. I'm at Chapter 9 and I must say this book has been an eye opener :eek:
Can we trust the accuracy of this account?
Even if not, this is most enlightening and entertaining.

I trust it since August Kubizek apparently does'nt have any bad feelings for Hitler. In that account, he is more trustworthy than Otto Strasser for example.

If you want to get a balanced biography of a historical person, you should combine the positive things which people who hated him/her had said and the negative things which people who loved him/her had said.

Apparently, Kubizek did love Hitler very much. I think they both probably were somehwat of loners.

I finished the book yesterday, and my impression is that Hitler probably had some form of neurological "defect" in his brain.
