Adolf Hitler’s Life Essay, Research Paper Andrew McCurdy Adolf Hitler?s Life Adolf Hitler was born around 6:30 p.m. on the night of April 20, 1889. He was born in a little village of Braunau Am Inn in Australia. He would one day lead a party that put a major importance on one?s family tree. Even though there was a Jew on his own family tree. Adolf?s father, Alois came from a poor background. Alois was born in 1837. Alois even became an Austrian customs official. He provided Adolf with a secondary school education. But he never got his customary graduation certificate, because of poor school behavior. In 1907, because of his father?s death Adolf moved away from home in Linz, Upper Austria so he could live in Vienna. When Adolf got to Vienna he mainly concentrated on his art

and some architecture. But he didn?t make it in to the Academy of Fine Arts. When the money that his parents gave him ran out he had to find some more money. Adolf found a job he painted postcards and watercolors. So that is the way he earned money for a couple of years. In 1913, Adolf moved to Munich. He moved there for two reasons, he was hoping to invade the Austrian Military and to find a better life that he would like. But when he got there it was harder for him to make a living than it was in Vienna. When World War I broke out he was really happy so he could go into the war. But in 1916 Adolf was shoot in the leg and in 1918 he was put in the gas chamber. For that he received a Bravery award. In September 1919, while he was an army political agent, Adolf found out about the

German Workers? Party. Adolf realized that this group would give him a pretty good chance at getting him his new goal. His new goal is to get political power. So in April of 1920 Adolf left the army so he could put all of his time to his position, chief propagandist, in the party. In November of 1923, Adolf went to prison for some illegal business in a little beer hall that he owned. Adolf tried to use his trial to get attention for what he was trying to do with the illegal business. But Adolf only served nine months out of the five years that he was supposed to. When Adolf got out of prison he tried to get the Nazi party back together, but he found out it was going to be harder than it sounds. Gregor Strasser, the leader of the party, tried to stop Adolf. But Adolf got some help

from the guys left back from World War I. In May of 1926, they held a party conference, Adolf out witted Strasser and won back his position as chairman. In September of 1930, Adolf and the Nazis made their first big move in the national elections, after that it seemed like Adolf could rise with nobody noticing a change. Of course all of that happened after the depression came over Germany. He still used his way of power of propaganda, demagoguery, and terror, and now he proclaimed and was against strong party oppositions. Through this time Adolf was supporting himself on money from his books and fees for his newspaper articles. He was making so much off of those that he could afford an apartment in Munich, a small village in the Alps, and a new car. He still managed to lead a

modest life though. His behavior went between periods where he couldn?t get any more energy and times where he was inactive and lazy. Sometimes he had carvings for movies, pastries, and Richard Wagner music. His sex life was a little weird. In 1928 he had an affair with his niece Geli Raubal. It ended though in 1931 when Geli felt suffocated by Adolf that she killed herself. When he became dictator he made Eva Braun his mistress, when she wanted to get married he refused so he could his image as a self-denying public servant. In July of 1932, Paul von Hindenburg was won the presidential elections. But on January 30, 1933, the old Hindenburg appointed Adolf chancellor of a coalition government with the conservatives. The conservatives thought that Adolf would help them. But in
