 - IN
1981, while researching for his
Hitler biography,
David Irving visited the well-known Stern
journalist Gerd Heidemann at his home in
Hamburg, Germany. Heidemann was (and still is) a
brilliant researcher on Nazi Germany. He built up over
the years, and has carefully guarded, an
archive of 7,000 ring binders of exclusive documents
and interviews.
He made many of these documents available to Mr.
Irving both then and later. Mr Irving published the
translation of one key item, the shorthand record of
Hitler's conversation with a Swabian dipomat, Eduard
Scharrer, in his newsletter Focal Point in 1982
("The Voice from Beyond Valhalla"). Along with his
other research files, Mr Irving donated the German
document to the Institut für Zeitgeschichte in
Munich where it can be seen in the Sammlung Irving.
-
- More
recently, for his work on Heinrich Himmler, Heidemann
has provided to Mr Irving an even more crucial
historic document - the primary shorthand notes taken
by Scharrer's secretary during the lengthy talk with
Hitler. Hitler sets out in unvarnished terms his
secret ambitions, and his recipe for solving Germany's
problems, including hyper-inflation and the "Jewish
Problem." Mr Irving assesses this document as being of
greater historical value than Mein Kampf, and
even than Hitlers Zweites Buch.
