"Hitler's Thirty Days to Power" is a 1996 history book by historian and Yale professor Henry Ashby Turner. The book covers political events in Germany during the month of January 1933, which culminated in the appointment of Adolf Hitler as chancellor on January 30.
In Hitler's Thirty Days to Power, Turner concludes that Hitler's rise was not inevitable, but that the end of the Weimar democracy probably was: Turner speculates that by 1933 the likely alternative to Hitler was a Kurt von Schleicher-led military regime, which Turner believes would have confined its territorial ambitions to the recovery of the Polish Corridor, leading to a limited German-Polish conflict but not a general European war – an unfolding of events where, in Mark Grimsley's characterization of Turner's conclusions, "Adolf Hitler would have become a mere footnote in history".
The book was reviewed by many important publications, including Foreign Affairs, the Times Literary Supplement, Booklist, the New York Review of Books, Kirkus Reviews, History and Theory and other publications.
