August Kubizek met Adolf Hitler in 1904 while they were both competing for standing room at the opera.  Their mutual passion for music created a strong bond, and over the next four years they became close friends, and eventually roommates.  The Young Hitler I Knew tells the story an an extraordinary friendship, and gives fascinating insight into Hitler's character during these formative years.  This is the edition to be published in English since 1955, and it corrects many changes made for reasons of political correctness.  It also includes important sections that were excised from the original English translation.
