RosettaBooks Releases First-Hand Account of Hitler

The leading independent eBook publisher digitizes classic WWII account

New York, NY June 25, 2013: William Shirer, a CBS correspondent who covered Nazi Germany directly from Berlin, reveals Hitler’s theatrical public speeches, horrific practices, and paranoid downfall in riveting detail through the digital publication of The Rise and Fall of Adolf Hitler.

The release of the classic historical account as an eBook allows a new generation of readers to tap into the immediacy and direct access of Shirer’s eyewitness descriptions and exclusive interviews, including those with Hitler himself.

Shirer originally wrote The Rise and Fall of Adolf Hitler, so a younger audience could discover his unique position at a key historical moment. Anything but simplistic, this focused report will pique the interest of history buffs, novice and expert alike.

His book, The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, has endured the test of time as the expert evaluation of this defining period. Having been stationed in Berlin since 1934, Shirer had an important perspective on how Hitler came to power in the first place.

“William Shirer offers an exclusive glimpse into a world few had access to witness,” said Arthur Klebanoff, CEO of RosettaBooks.

Hired to cover Germany by Edward R. Murrow’s CBS radio team covering global World War II events, Shirer’s 30-minute live broadcasts from London, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, and Rome later became the blueprint for CBS World News Roundup.
