Hitler's chauffeur, a man named Kempka, wrote a book called "The last days of 
Hitler" or something like that (I read it as a was a teenager, I found it in 
my father's "book collection" concerning the history of WW 2, the history of 
the Waffen-SS and so forth). Kempka was the man who burnt Hitler's body so 
that he could not be recognized. About Bormann Kempka wrote, "he was a devil. 
He seemed weird to me." Kempka wanted to say the reader that Hitler stood 
under the influence of Bormann (perhaps Bormann was a kind of Rasputin for 
Kempka?). The epilogue was written by David Irving, longer than Kempka's 
report; one chapter I remember had the title "Hitler and the women", and it 
was about the fact that three women who fell in love with the Fuehrer made 
suicide.
Strange literature. But you cannot choose your parents, especially the 
"literary" favorites of your father.
