FORWARD

I began my sentence in the Fortress of Landsberg on the Lech, April 1, 1924 resulting from

my sentence handed down from the Munich People¡¯s Court.

For the first time in my years of uninterrupted Party work, I was finally able to begin a job

that many had asked me to complete and one which I myself felt was useful for the

Movement. I decided to write two volumes which would not only explain the aims of our

Movement, but also would reveal the birth of the Movement. I believe my story will be

more beneficial than a simple historical description.

This work will allow me to describe my own growth in the Movement and assist in crushing

the falsehoods about me created by the Jewish press.

My writing is not for strangers, but for those heart-strong supporters of the Movement, and

those whose minds need enlightenment.

I know that men are more rarely won over by the written word than they are by the spoken

word and that every great movement in this world owes its growth to great speakers, not to

great writers.

Still, writing is necessary to create a unified doctrine we can distribute. I must lay down its

principles for all time. These two volumes, then, are meant to serve as stones which I

hereby add to the foundation of the Movement.

The author

Landsberg on the Lech Prison Fortress

On November 9, 1923 at 12:30 P. M., the following men who believed in the resurrection of

their people, fell in front of the Field Marshall¡¯s Hall in Munich (Hitler dedicated the first

volume to these men. They were the Nazi Party members who were shot and killed during

the failed putsch [putsch means coup d¡¯etat or government overthrow] of 1923 which

resulted in Hitler¡¯s prison sentence):

The so-called national, constitutional authorities refused these dead heroes a proper burial

ceremony.

Therefore, I dedicate to their common memory the first volume of this work, for their

martyrdom shall shine forever on our Movement.

Landsberg on the Lech, Prison Fortress, October 16, 1924.
