The Trail of Adolf Hitler | David King

The Trial of Adolf Hitler: The Beer Hall Putsch and the Rise of Nazi Germany by David King is a historical account of the failed 1923 Beer Hall Putsch and the subsequent trial that set the stage for Hitler’s rise to power.

The book chronicles how Adolf Hitler and his followers attempted to overthrow the German government in Munich, only to be swiftly defeated and arrested. Rather than marking the end of his political ambitions, Hitler used his trial as a propaganda platform, transforming himself from a little-known agitator into a national figure. King provides a gripping, deeply researched narrative that explores the courtroom drama, the political climate of post-World War I Germany, and how the trial shaped Hitler’s ideology and the Nazi movement.

With vivid details and historical insight, The Trial of Adolf Hitler reveals how a failed coup became a turning point in world history, leading to the rise of one of history’s most infamous dictators.
