Hitler’s Library Reveals His Reading of Wild West Tales
Frederick C. Oechsner details Adolf Hitler’s vast library in Berlin and Berchtesgaden, noting 7,000 military volumes, 1,600 on arts, 800–1,000 fiction titles, and 200 photographs. Goering gifted Karl May westerns, while Hitler annotated margins, collected astrological works, and built a 20 million Reichsmark treasure in a wall safe. He reads late, sketches armies, and pursues grand architectural spaces as part of his worldview.
