The Holocaust. A subject most people would like to forget but shouldn't. People must find out as much as possible about it so history won't repeat itself. Millions of Jewish men, women, and children , of all strata were persecuted because of what? Nothing besides the fact that they were Jewish. Most Jews living in Germany, Austria, Poland, France or practically anywhere else in Europe were sent to concentration camps. There they were either tortured or killed.
In The book Devil in Vienna, by Doris Orgel, Inge a young, intelligent Jewish girl is faced with the same types of problems. Being Jewish at that time was no small problem. Instead of worrying what to wear the next day, she would have to worry about whether or not her family

Camp living conditions were atrocious. People sent to the camps were fed the very bare minimum, never bathed, were frequently beaten, given the worst sleeping quarters, and killed in mass numbers by carbon monoxide gassing, shooting and being cremated alive. The people in charge of the camps were allowed to do anything they pleased, no matter how violent and abusive. Often they would make Jews do embarrassing and painful things just out of pure hatred, such as walk around naked, dig their own grave before being shot, and work until they would die. It may not seem true, but it is all too real, and it was caused almost single-handedly by Hitler.
Adolf Hitler, the man who was ultimately responsible for having thousands of Jews executed, was born on April 20, 1889 in Austria-Hungary, one of five children from his father's third marriage (three died during childhood).
He grew up in what we now call a "broken home". His father was a violent ill-tempered man who would frequently resort to beatings to silence his children. His mother spoiled him with material goods, maybe out of maternal anxiety. Although Hitler was never encouraged to try his best, he was punished when he did not do well. This may explain why he acted the way he did when he grew up.
Hitler did not do much better at school than he did at home. He was a poor student, not because he wasn't intelligent but rather because he never applied himself. His

Adolf Hitler did not have a good early life. He was born on April 20, 1889 In Austria. He was never very social with his peers or his family, besides his mother who died when he was very young. He had intended to become an artist, and drew excellent landscapes. His father, though, did not approve of his plan, and was very abusive to him. He was actually part Jewish although born a Catholic. No one seemed to take him serious. He wanted to prove his power. (Holocaust Encyclopedia)
Hitler is often seen as a horrid, cruel person, but as John F. Kennedy states, he did many wonderful things for this world. Although Hitler had his way in doing the things he wanted to do, he created many new ideas that are still in use! Hitler was born on April 20, 1889 in Braunau am Inn, Austria. Adolf Hitler was the fourth of six children born to Klara Hitler and Alois Hitler As a child, he was known as “Adi” and attended a Catholic church.

Have you ever heard the expression, “You are a product of your environment?” Children learn how to speak from their parents by mimicking them , walk and treat others in their family, neighborhood and community. When children live with parents that show affection, concern, kindness and patience, children can grow up feeling loved, respected and have self-confidence. Hitler’s father was very rigid, mean, verbally and physically abusive to him and his older brother. I think Hitlers childhood had a lot to do with how Adolf Hitler became the dictator that he was. Hitler was a man who was responsible for the killing of approximately six million Jews in the Holocaust. However, he was also misunderstood and neglected as a
Like most people, the horrible feeling of failure sparked an urge in Hitler to have great success. For example, when Hitler was young, he aspired to be an artist and auditioned for many academies but was unfortunately denied access to all he
In Hitler early years the loss of his parents had severely threatened his social status. He would strive to create art and believed that he was very talented. He could not understand why others did not see his talents though and why he was rejected from art schools numerous times. This lead to much time being spent in the library where he would indulge himself in political tracts. His first attempt at being a part of the German military would come as a great upset to him. He is turned down because they see him as unfit. His military entry would come after the 1914 June 28th assassination of the Arch duke Franz Ferdinand and the start of the First World War.
Adolf Hitler had a very poor childhood including a wicked father and relocating. He was born in small city of Austria Hungary on April 20, 1898. His family later moved to Germany when he was a little bit older. Moving to Germany unfortunately made his family have poor lives, money wise. As a child, Hitler’s father was very abusive towards him and his siblings, explaining why he was so angry as he got older. Because of this, he had a strong bond with his mother and loved her very much. These reasons lead to his arrival of being a dictator of Germany because he had so much hatred build up and relocating.

Hitler once stated “If you tell a big enough lie and tell it frequently enough, it will be believed.” Hitler was born in Braunau-am-Inn Austria. He did very poorly in school and did not complete all his credits during his schooling. Hitler’s father died when he was 13 and 6 years later his mother died, yet he still managed to be a very successful person. Somehow he managed to gain and maintain power because he used force, lots of scapegoating, and lastly propaganda.
Hitler’s attitudes led to his becoming a rabid German nationalist. His ancestors too were peasants, but not serfs. Unlike Stalin, Hitler’s early years were not of hardship and poverty. He was never poor or harshly treated. His father moved up in the ranks in the service and retired with the highest rank open to a civil servant with his education. He had a secure income and a very high social standing and when he passed away he left his widow and children well provided for.
Jews had to share room, bunks, and restrooms with everyone else. Jews were treated brutally and were tortured. They were hardly ever fed and if they were it would be a small amount. Diseases were also spread around quickly. Many of these camps didn’t even have furniture for the Jews. When they did, they would have to share bunks. Many people shared rooms and bunks. Multiple people would sleep on bunks. They were never washed or cleaned. Nazi soldiers would also trick the Jews into thinking they would get to shower. They would give them procedures such “Take off all your clothes.” The Jews actually didn’t know they were walking into gas chambers and that they will die in shortly as to 5 minutes. Everyone were put into gas chambers like men, elderly, women, children, and
Adolf Hitler was born to Alois and Klara Hitler on April 20th, 1889. His childhood was unhappy, but not totally miserable. His father wanted him to be a civil servant, but Adolf wanted to become a painter. Hitler did well in Elementary school, but later on he failed miserably, which he blamed his teachers for. His father died in 1903, and Adolf dropped out of school two years later. In "Mein Kampf" (My Struggle), the autobiography Hitler dictated while in Landsberg prison in 1924, he says the period in his life from 1905 to 1908 as " the happiest days of my life almost a dream." In those years he becamse obsessed with politics and developed his hatred for the Hapsburg monarchy. He applied to the Vienna Academy of Fine

He never completed high school but he applied for admission to the Academy of Fine Arts in Vienna (Funk & Wagnalls New World Encyclopedia). He did not receive admission because he apparently lacked talent. He lived in Vienna until 1913 on an orphan’s pension and the earnings he made from his drawings. He read often and developed contempt for Jews and democracy. Hitler volunteered for service in the Bavarian army during World War I. He was a dedicated soldier, but he was never promoted higher than private first class because his supervisors thought that he did not have the potential to be a leader. After Germany lost the war in 1918, he remaining in the army until 1920. His commander made him an education officer, with the order to immunize his charges against pacifist and democratic ideas. He joined the nationalist German Workers’ party in September
The Holocaust was one of the most horrific time periods where unthinkable and unimaginable crimes were committed against Jews, Gypsies and other racial groups. No one could have ever imagined the numbers of innocent people Hitler massacred. Until liberation millions of Jews were sent to death and concentration camps, such as Auschwitz. With tons of severe and cruel ways of extermination they were stuck in this horrible place. Because of the horrific living conditions, forced labor, mass murdering, and other inhumane activities, Auschwitz was the most feared, and the largest Nazi Death Camp of World War 2.
