Percy Ernst Schramm, one of Germany's most distinguished historians, had exceptional insight into Hitler's headquarters while acting as War Diary Office of the High Command of the German Armed Forces. This classic volume, long out of print, contains the introductions written by Schramm to critical editions of Hitler's Table Talk and the official War Diary of the High Command of the Wehrmacht. In addition, there are two appendices: the first consisting of excerpts from a study composed by Schramm for the Nuremberg Trials on relations between Hitler and the General Staff; the second a memorandum written by General Jodl in 1946 on Hitler's military leadership.

      Schramm was Hitler's official war diarist and had close-quarter access to the German leader from 1943 until his suicide. His personal observations show a different Hitler than generally seen in historical accounts. While not quite presenting "the F hrer with the song in his heart," etc., this does provide insight into what he was like as a person. Surprisingly, Schramm insists that Hitler was completely sane and realized early on that he could never win the war but plowed on nonetheless.
