At 16-years of age Adolf Hitler beheld a vision. During his trance-like state he came to accept that he was destined to follow the path of Rienzi. Legend has it that the Roman tribune inspired revolt against immoral government. Rienzi perished when in turn his corrupt foes overthrew him. The astonishing thing about the Hitler phenomena is how little is known of this extraordinary social reformer, the most popular leader in European history.Odyssey offers a fascinating medley of stories that inspire thought as to Hitler's spirituality if not his divinity. The future statesmen and prophet miraculously survived the most apocalyptic battles of World War One. The Spartan socialist revolutionary donated his salary and never had a bank account. Having won the hearts of nations he fought to a standstill three empires and died a martyr. The world and especially his own people then and now celebrated the astounding achievements of Adolf Hitler.
About the Author: Mike Walsh, veteran journalist, broadcaster and historian of international reputation. A fugitive only from leftists, palace scribblers and censors, whom he dismisses as renegade Europeans, he has shrugged off their wrath over 50 years of writing. Mike has quite a pedigree. His Irish-American father, Patrick, by the time he reached 40-years of age, had fought in four conflicts. As a rebel in the Irish peoples guerrilla war against England's Black and Tans. These irregulars, mostly dredged from England's prisons, were notorious for their viciousness. Patrick also fought in the Irish War of Independence. Mike's father went on to fight in the most ferocious hand-to-hand battles during the Spanish Civil War. Whilst on the frontlines, he was a close associate and friend of American war correspondent, Ernest Hemingway. He formed a close and enduring friendship with Ireland's most celebrated playwright, Sean O'Casey. Eventually, but not finally, his father served in the Royal Air Force during World War Two as an aircraft fitter / flier. Mikes mother, Kathleen, from a literary family, and who also mentored Mike's writing skills, was a corresponding friend of Dolores Ibarruri, Spain's Civil War revolutionary La Pasionaria. A tireless traveler, Mike, from the age of 26, was consumed by a passion for truth and justice. Inevitably, this led him to discover the potpourri of lies, infamies, cover-ups and crimes committed by those who militarily but never morally defeated Europe's last chance of survival, free from race-mixing genocide, perpetual war and bankers' slaves. The hapless victors ensured the spread of Bolshevism, the dismembering of the British Empire, and surrender to American imperialism. What was the true achievement of the combined British, American and Bolshevik empires? Ultimately, these 'victors' hastened the genocide of the European peoples. Through their base treachery they destroyed the one genuine revolution that alone could have ensured the preservation of European culture and values. Their dance of death is on their own funeral pyres. Witness to History is their obituary.
