Utterly and completely awful. And creepy–the cover and Hitler, erm, Hitler’s, uh, Hitlers’, ummmm…that fellow near the bottom peach rectangle is only a forehead and the one over on the left has his eyes blacked out with a black box. WTF?

Maybe the “historian” thinks “Hitler” is a title/rank and doesn’t know it’s a name…
Of course, that thought is even more horrible than this cover.
Actually, if the documentary I’ve watched is right, the name was supposed to be Hiedler, but some clerk wrote it down wrong. And it’s only because his father took his stepfather’s name—he was born Schicklgruber, but I guess the name sounded too peasant-y so he chose to take his stepfather’s name instead. There is no last name Hitler in either Austria or Germany, as far as I know.

Wasn’t there a little squiggly line under “the” in Word for an unnecessary word?
how could you get the grammar wrong in just three words?
Because you don’t care?
Because you are an over-achiever? 😉
“The First Edition History Series”? What does that even mean?
It’s not just any Hitler’s Family. It’s *THE* Hitler’s Family. Adolph’s. Just in case you were confused about that…
Adolf doesn’t looked pleased to be on this cover…
