\""Hitler's Private Library: The Books that Shaped his Life\"" by Timothy W. Ryback, 278pp, ISBN 9781847920812\nCondition Notes: New (as in unread remainder copy). Seconds condition. Last copy in stock - has slight rubbing to cover edges and the top right corner has a very very faint crease mark on it from the front of the book to about page 100. Although it is a new copy, it is no longer pristine due to its long storage time in the warehouse\nAbout this book: He was, of course, a man better known for burning books than collecting them and yet by the time he died, aged 56, Adolf Hitler owned an estimated 16,000 volumes - the works of historians, philosophers, poets, playwrights and novelists. A passionate reader, his worldview was largely formed by the books he read.\n* For more than fifty years the remnants of Hitler's private library occupied shelf-space in climate-controlled obscurity in the rare book division of the Library of Congress in Washington.
