HITLER, ADOLF; TREVOR-ROPER, H.R. (INTRODUCTORY ESSAY) — Hitler's Secret Conversations 1941-1944

New York: Farrar, Straus And Young, 1953. First US Edition. Hardcover. "One of the most significant documents of recent history, this book records the private, off-the-record, informal conversations of a man who almost remade the world. This is Hitler on his enemies, on his friends, on his ambitions, his failures, his secret dreams, as he voiced his thoughts to his intimate associates after the rigors of each day were over. One day, after his infamous tyranny had been established for 'a thousand years,' Hitler intended to use these notes as source material for the books he planned to write. Never has any revolutionary leader given so clear and terrifying a picture of the pattern which he had designed for the world." - replica dust jacket. pp. xxx, [2], 597. Index.
