David John Cawdell Irving (born 1938) is a British author who once possessed a certain renegade charisma. In the 1960s and 70s, he gained access to German archives and interviewed surviving Nazi officials. His early works— The Destruction of Dresden (1963) and The Mare’s Nest (1964)—were taken seriously by some reviewers, though they contained early signs of exaggeration.
Irving claims Hitler didn’t know until 1943. Yet the Wannsee Conference (January 1942) coordinated the genocide, and Hitler had approved Operation Barbarossa with orders to liquidate Jewish commissars. Hitler’s table talk from 1941 includes explicit genocidal remarks.
The Spanish edition, titled , has seen several printings. A notable version was published by Editorial Planeta in the late 1970s and 1980s.

David Irving’s Hitler's War (often referred in Spanish searches as La Guerra de Hitler or La Guerra de Hitler castellanopdf ) remains one of the most controversial works of historical revisionism regarding the Second World War. First published in 1977, the book aimed to present the conflict from the perspective of Adolf Hitler himself, rather than the Allied viewpoint.
