Historical Material Policy ->By David Irving | First published 1983 | Hardcover edition
Dr. Theodor Morell served Hitler's personal physician from 1936 until the final days in the bunker. His diaries and medical records, captured by American forces in 1945, provide unique documentation of Hitler's health, treatments, and physical deterioration during the war years.
The work presents Morell's medical diaries alongside analysis of the treatments administered—the injections, medications, and procedures that formed Hitler's daily medical regimen. The study examines what the records reveal about Hitler's physical condition and its potential influence on his decision-making.
Research based upon Morell's captured diaries and medical records held in American archives. Irving gained access to materials withheld from earlier researchers, including detailed prescription records and clinical notes.
Of particular interest to medical historians, Hitler biographers, and researchers examining the relationship between physical health and wartime leadership. Primary source documentation supports advanced academic use.
Hardcover binding. Medical documentation reproduced in appendices. Built for specialist library and private collection use.
Published by Focal Point Publications.
