As a youth he excelled in school. As a young man he dreamt of revolution, wrote novels and idealistic poetry, and fell in love with a girl of Jewish ancestry. As an aspiring journalist he longed to be an editor on Berlin's most prestigious newspaper. Then Joseph Goebbels met the young Adolf Hitler, and the world has never been the same. Here is the story of Hitler's Propaganda Chief: how Goebbels rose through the ranks of the Nazi party; how he seized control of all avenues that shape public opinion~the press, the arts, education; how he wielded personal power once he gained it. And how he achieved his ultimate goal~the creation of the Fuehrer myth~to enable Hitler to wield supreme power. Here is the story of the life of Dr. Joseph Goebbels, "the man who created Hitler." Viktor Reimann was born and raised in Austria where he received his doctorate in history and worked briefly as a newspaper columnist and art critic before his arrest by the Nazis in 1940. He spent the next five years in Nazi prisons. Four years after his release he was elected to the Free Austrian Parliament. A free~lance writer since 1960, he is the author of books on Austrian history.
