The Night of the Long Knives

Many wonder how an entire nation could allow Adolf Hitler--a mediocre army corporal & a failed landscape painter--to become the architect of the most calamitous events of the 20th century. But few know that Hitler's fateful transition from ambitious demagogue to Europe's most vicious tyrant occurred on an ordinary Saturday--June 30, 1934--through a little-known event that would become known as 'The Night of the Long Knives."
