A biography of one of the Fuehrer's few true confidants. With seventy- five b&w photographs of Bauer, Hitler, and those working closely with them, this book explores the nature of this complex relationship with Hitler, who from an early stage refused to fly with anybody other than Bauer at the controls. It follows Bauer's life from his demonstrated skills in World War I as a pilot to his eventual role as an unofficial advisor to Hitler on all matters concerning air war policy and technical developments, his eventual imprisonment by the USSR until 1955 and his new life in Germany when he was released.
