Direct from the What Not To Buy TheEye For Christmas Department we have a new book out just in time for Christmas which claims that Adolf Hitler’s teeth contained gold once owned by Jewish people who died in concentration camps.
But German historian Henrik Eberle and doctor Hans-Joachim Neumann reject claims Hitler was mentally ill or under the influence of drugs. The authors claim in their new book “War Hitler krank?” (Was Hitler sick?) – which is in stores now by publishing house Lübbe – that the Third Reich leader suffered from an irritable colon, Parkinson’s disease, high blood pressure and calcification of his coronary vessels. But the authors stress Hitler always knew what he was doing.

Eberle and Neumann, who researched the notes of Hitler’s personal doctor Theo Morell among other documents dealing with Hitler’s condition, also claim having found out that that the Braunau-born’s teeth contained gold once in Jewish possession. And they said Hitler was given testosterone jabs every time he met lover Eva Braun.

It’s really all too much. TheEye has to go and sit down with a copy of Mike Brearley’s The Art of Captaincy. Just as infuriating but with fewer Soviet tanks. And Brearley doesn’t shoot himself at the end, apparently.
