Adolf Hitler was one of six children born to his mother, and one of eight born to his father from two of his three marriages. Alois Hitler, né Schicklgruber, was an official of the Austrian customs service, and the combination of an imperial uniform and a severe drinking habit seems to have ensured that Hitler's father was a drunken bully given to beating his children if they were not instantly obedient.Alois had two children, Alois junior and Angela, by his second wife, and six by his third, Hitler's mother Clara, of whom four, all boys, died at birth or in infancy. Young Adolf was therefore left with a half-brother, Alois, and half-sister, Angela, and a full sister, Paula, who died in 1960. When Hitler killed himself in April 1945, all his siblings were still living and some had children of their own. So, what happened to them?The answer is that no one was really certain until David Gardner published this book in 2001, having patiently and steadfastly tracked down Hitler's living relations to the USA, and made contact with some of them. Now revised and updated, this is a fascinating study of a little-known side of Hitler's history, as well as a riveting account of how the author traced and contacted the survivors of a bloodline that most of the world probably hoped had become extinct.

Set against the backdrop of a defunct revolving restaurant, the story follows Professor Lenny Thorson, a linguistics teacher at a struggling college. His life is marked by eccentricities, including a fascination with word origins and a gerbil mascot. Haunted by his past, Lenny grapples with guilt from a tragic incident in his youth involving a boxing match that left another fighter dead. His unconventional living situation and personal struggles provide a unique lens through which to explore themes of regret, identity, and the search for meaning.

Get smart, play the fool and make a fortune with this fully revised and updated third edition of the best-selling guide.

As Barack Obama seeks to chart a new course in American foreign policy, David Gardner addresses the controversial but urgent why is the Middle East so dysfunctional? And what can be done about it?Clear-sighted and never flinching from uncomfortable truths, Gardner draws on his acute grasp of history and decades of experience covering the region to look at why conflict, despotism and sectarianism continue to flourish in the Arab world whilst they decline elsewhere. The supposed ‘Middle East exception’ is in fact, he argues, a product of the West’s own making. By supporting tyrants, fuelling the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and demonizing democratically elected Islamist parties, the West has incubated a region inherently resistant to economic and political reform, and suppurating with resentment. Timely and insightful, Gardner makes the case for a foreign policy revolution for ntohing less than a total reappraisal of what realpolitik means.
