EVENT DETAILS

Why, after starting World War II with a string of Blitzkrieg victories hardly seen before in the history of warfare, did Adolf Hitler make the series of disastrous blunders that led him to losing it? In the first talk in a series examining the governing forces behind World War II, award-winning historian Andrew Roberts surveys the evolving military priorities of the most evil man who ever lived.

Future talks in the Leaders in War series include Charles de Gaulle and Joseph Stalin.

Andrew Roberts is the author and editor of 12 books, including Masters and Commanders: How Four Titans Won the War in the West, 19411945 and Napoleon: A Life.

LOCATION

The Robert H. Smith Auditorium at the New-York Historical Society, 170 Central Park West, New York, NY 10024
