Conjuring Hitler, ISBN 074532181X , is a seminal work of historical revision by Professor Guido Giacomo Preparata.
First published in 2005, the book effectively rewrites the history of the inter-war years and their inevitable cataclysmic result. It challenges the cosy, self-satisfied official narrative of the Category:World War II victors.
For the average UK/USA citizen schooled and brought up on a diet of a plucky little Island Nation battling against the odds and joined by its US ally just in time to defeat the Evil Empire, it makes very uncomfortable reading indeed. Most will close their minds to its meticulously researched, documented and footnoted contents.
The establishment will indulge the vicious calumnies that are its only defence against having its 'just war' narrative exposed as a self-serving oversimplification. As is clear from Preparata's afterword (see below), written 4 years after publication of the book, this is already being attempted - thankfully with little success so far.
