Top-Rated Episodes
S1.E8
Hitler liked to tour cheering crowds in a customized, open-top Grosser Mercedes and later a G4-a predilection that gave his bodyguards nightmares.
Hitler's Alpine retreat in Bavaria offered opportunities for a pistol-packing German officer, a sniper, a long-range bombing raid, and even an aerial assault by the Allies.
Heavily camouflaged and fortified, Hitler's military headquarters in Poland saw several assassination attempts--including one that came closest to succeeding.

One of the most interesting series on Hitler in the interwar years, detailing his rise to power and the intrigues of the Nazis. More and better information than I've found in any series about the Nazis. The less appealing elements are the somewhat intrusive music and the repetitive footage which assumes the viewer has not seen previous episodes. All in all, those are small complaints compared to the depth of information in the series. Hitler's rise to power, year by year, has most often been skimmed over or ignored in previous bios and this is much than the title suggests. An absolute must for Nazi history buffs.
