A Washington Post Notable Book With a new chapter on eugenicist Madison Grant’s The Passing of the Great Race In this brilliant and original exploration of some of the formative influences in Adolf Hitler’s life, Timothy Ryback examines the books that shaped the man and his thinking. Hitler was better known for burning books than collecting them but, as Ryback vividly shows us, books were Hitler’s constant companions throughout his life. They accompanied him from his years as a frontline corporal during the First World War to his final days before his suicide in Berlin. With remarkable attention to detail, Ryback examines the surviving volumes from Hitler’s private book collection, revealing the ideas and obsessions that occupied Hitler in his most private hours and the consequences they had for our world. A feat of scholarly detective work, and a captivating biographical portrait, Hitler’s Private Library is one of the most intimate and chilling works on Hitler yet written.

The Swiss physician and polymath Conrad Gessner (1516-1565) was one of the most prominent scientists of the early modern period and wrote numerous important works. During the last two decades were discovered nearly 400 titles from his private library. They give an interesting insight into his interests and his sources. The present book contains not only an introduction and a catalogue of these books, but also inventories of the lost works as well as the still extant and lost manuscripts possessed by Gessner. They open the door to Gessner's study and to the intellectual world of a fascinating Renaissance scholar.

In "The Private Library," Arthur Lee Humphreys delves into the nuanced relationship between identity and the written word, artfully intertwining personal anecdotes with broader cultural reflections. This elegantly crafted work captures the essence of a private library as not merely a collection of books, but a sanctuary of self-discovery and a testament to one's intellectual pursuits. The prose is imbued with a lyrical quality, echoing the contemplative richness found in the works of literary greats, while situating itself within the contemporary exploration of bibliophilia and its role in shaping individual narratives in a digital age. Arthur Lee Humphreys, an esteemed bibliophile and historian, draws upon his extensive experience in the literary world to illuminate the significance of personal libraries. His profound appreciation for books has been a lifelong journey, informed by a deep understanding of their impact on culture and individual thought. Humphreys' erudition shines through as he navigates the tensions between tradition and modernity, lending authoritative insight into the motivations that drive collectors and readers alike to curate their own spaces of reflection. This book is a compelling read for anyone longing to understand the significance of books in their lives. I highly recommend "The Private Library" to bibliophiles, literary scholars, and casual readers alike, as it offers a profound meditation on the books that shape our identities and the intimate spaces we create around them.
