This is a book that should be read with one or more other biographies of Hitler at hand. It is strong on Hitler's motivations. Much of it the conclusions are probably incorrect. A minor contribution to the motivations of Hitler. Much more is to be explained.
I love reading about WWII and HItler, so this was great for me to read. it was choke full of information i never knew.
