Hitler Was My Friend by Heinrich Hoffman (2011, Hardcover) NOT CHEAP BOOKCLUB

Description: HITLER WAS MY FRIEND THE MEMOIRS OF HITLER'S PHOTOGRAPHER by Heinrich Hoffman, hardcover book with dustjacket, new copy Heinrich Hoffman was a key part in the making of the Hitler legend, the photographer who carefully crafted the image of the Führer as a godlike figure. Hoffmann published his first book of photographs in 1919, following his work as an official photographer for the German army. In 1920 he joined the Nazi Party, and his association with Hitler began. He became Hitler's official photographer and traveled with him extensively. He took over two million photographs of Hitler, and they were distributed widely, including on postage stamps, an enterprise that proved very profitable for both men. Hoffmann published several books on Hitler in the 1930s, including The Hitler Nobody Knows (1933). Hoffmann and Hitler were very close, and he acted not only as a personal confidante - his memoirs include rare details of the Führer - but also as a matchmaker – it is Hoffmann who introduced Eva Braun, his studio assistant, to Hitler. At the end of the war, Hoffmann was arrested by the US military, who also seized his photographic archive, and was sentenced to imprisonment for Nazi profiteering. This edition of a classic book includes photographs by Hoffmann and a new introduction by Roger Moorhouse. 256 pages, illustrated with a few b/w photos. All dust jackets for hardcover books are protected with clear plastic, fully removalbe covers. These will protect the dust jacket forever, keeping it in new condition for the life of the book. These are especially handy for the large oversize books whose jackets easily get torn as you might have noticed when browsing in bookstores. These are not a permanent part of the jacket, if you don't like it you can easily remove it without damaging the jacket. I cover all hardcover books with these covers and there are so popular that many customers buy them from me to put on books in their own collection. All books are entirely in English unless noted otherwise. Winner pays $6.50 shipping within the US. I combine purchases and the rate goes way down after the first book purchased. International orders billed at cost. I will ship anywhere in the world. If you have any questions about payment options please contact me. I SHIP ANYWHERE ON THIS PLANET. Be assured, though I may not always have the lowest price, you will not get any cheap bookclub editions from me on ebay. I've been selling books for many many years and I can spot cheap bookclubs a mile away. Hand me a book and I'll tell you straight off if it's a bookclub edition. Sometimes it can be hard for most booksellers to know if it's a bookclub, like university press books. They don't normally put the price on the jacket for the publisher's edition, but most of them do use full or partial cloth binding, whereas the bookclub edition will be simply cheap board covers. Though let's face it, most of the publisher's editions these days aren't all that great in quality either, the bookclubs are even worse! Please look at my ebay store where many similar titles are available.
