On the chilling night of January 30, 1933, Adolf Hitler stood in a spotlit window of the Reich Chancellery in Berlin, filled with joy. The moment was almost surreal, even to Hitler himself. After a tumultuous political journey that nearly collapsed multiple times, he finally achieved his ultimate goal of rising to power. While many books have covered Hitler's rise to power in larger scopes, none have specifically focused on his eight-year climb from 1925 to 1933. Renowned author Peter Ross Range brings this lesser-known period back to life in a gripping narrative that delves into Hitler's pursuit of power through electioneering, revenge seeking, and shady campaign strategies. This story captures moments of triumph, followed by crushing defeat, in Hitler's relentless quest for control. From a high school dropout to the highest office in Germany, Hitler's journey was marked by personal growth, scandalous affairs, and even suicide attempts. Yet, it is also a definitive account of Hitler's ruthless tactics in building the Third Reich and plunging the world into darkness. The story unfolds against the backdrop of Germany's struggle to recover from World War I, leading to a period of prosperity before descending into despair. The Unfathomable Ascent is a compelling tale that reminds us of the tragic consequences of Hitler's march to power and the fragility of democracy. This fast-paced narrative highlights how the German Republic self-destructed from within, making it essential reading for anyone interested in this pivotal moment in history. David King, author of The Trial of Adolf Hitler, praises it as a tour de force that captures the turbulent journey of Hitler's rise to power.
