Mein Kampf

Mein Kampf is an autobiography of Adolf Hitler, in which he outlines his political ideology and future plans for Germany. It contains stories from his childhood, the events and situations that influenced his ideologies, and his prejudices. It explains his visions for German expansion through Europe, the Unification of Germany and Austria, and his assertion of the superiority of the 'Aryan' Race. Hitler began dictating the book to Hess while imprisoned for what he considered to be 'political crimes' following his failed Putsch in Munich in November 1923. Although Hitler received many visitors initially, he soon devoted himself entirely to the book.
