Is it ok to present Hitler as an ordinary guy?

Adolf Hitler's devastating rule is among the most extensively researched themes in German historiography. Now a new book, "Hitler - The Itinerary. Whereabouts and Journeys from 1889 to 1945", published this week in Berlin, has traced the whereabouts of the dictator from his birth until his death. Dan Damon has been speaking to its author, Harald Sandner, and asked him, why write yet another book on Hitler?
