George Lincoln Rockwell—

A National Socialist Life

William L. Pierce

On the eighteenth of June, 1945, a little over six weeks after the death of Adolf Hitler,

Rudolf Hess wrote the following words in a letter to his wife, from his prison cell:

You will readily imagine how often during the last few weeks my thoughts

have turned to the years gone by: to this quarter of a century of history,

concentrated for us in one name and full of the most wonderful human

experiences. History is not ended. It will sooner or later take up the threads

apparently broken off forever and knit them together in a new pattern. The

human element is no more and lives only in memory. Very few people have

been privileged, as we were, to participate from the very beginning in the

growth of a unique personality, through joy and sorrow, hope and trouble,

love and hate, and all the manifestations of greatness, and further, in all the

little indications of human weakness, without which a man is not truly

worthy of love. . .

Even when one has been privileged to witness the manifestations of greatness, it may be

exceedingly difficult to describe adequately in words those manifestations and thereby to

paint a true picture of a unique and great personality. When one has not the basis of a

quarter-century of participation in the growth of such a personality, but less than two years,

the task is especially difficult. It would be a vain hope, then, to expect the pages which

follow to reflect the true greatness of the man. That greatness will be best reflected in the

fruition of his life’s work in years to come.

Here, however, we can at least hope to evoke an image of the man, imperfect and

incomplete though it may be, which will serve to inspire those National Socialists who did

not have the privilege of knowing him personally.
