Mein Kampf Official Nazi Translation
Mein Kampf Official Nazi Translation
This official Nazi English translation of "Mein Kampf" is one of the rarest editions ever made.
This is the Official Nazi English Translation of Mein Kampf. It was recently rediscovered after all copies were thought to have been destroyed. This edition is one of the rarest Mein Kampf editions ever made, having passed from hand to hand without the owners being aware of its true identity or value for 65 years.
Finally, in 2009, the full story was revealed, and the text became available for the world to read. The Nazi Propaganda Ministry aimed to produce an English language version of Mein Kampf. However, they were wary of revealing too much information. Despite their hesitations, they decided to proceed and hired a British man to create a translation for the Nazi government, which later became the Official Nazi Translation written in 1936-37.
The translator, James Murphy, initially had some sympathies for Nazi politics, which gained him enough trust to begin the translation. This edition was translated while Murphy lived in Germany. Over time, Murphy's views about the Nazi government shifted. Subsequently, after making some critical remarks, the Nazi government decided they no longer favoured him and instructed him to leave. He departed hastily, leaving the translation unfinished.
The Nazi government completed the translation, and it was printed within Germany by the Nazi printing office. The exact publication date remains unknown, but it was discovered in a prison camp that opened in 1938 and was liberated in 1945, suggesting the book was published between those years. This historically significant version, previously unknown, remains exceptionally rare.
If you've already read Mein Kampf, you might find the differences intriguing. If not, this version could quickly spark your curiosity. Discover the contents of the official Nazi version today.
