He Was My Chief

As secretary to the Führer through twelve years of the Third Reich, Christa Schroeder was perfectly placed to observe the actions and behaviour of Adolf Hitler and his henchmen. Her memoir gives fascinating insights into the course of military and political events, the workings of Hitler's inner circle, and the personality of the Nazi dictator and those closest to him. First published in Germany in 1985; translated by Geoffrey Brooks, with an introduction by Roger Moorhouse.
