1933 captures the drama of Hitler's first year in power. Using diaries, letters, & memoirs, Philip Metcalfe intertwines the stories of five unrelated yet directly involved witnesses to the era- U.S. ambassador to Germany, William Dodd, & his daughter Martha; Bella Fromm, a glamorous(openly Jewish) German society columnist; Ernst(Putzi) Hanfstaengl, Hitler's chief of foreign press; & Rudolf Diels, the first head of the Gestapo- into a ground-zero view of Berlin society during the first turbulent months of Hitler's consolidation of power.
