By Adolf Hitler Paper back edition. The complete version, approved by the pre-war German authorities. The book is regarded as something of a trial by some reviewers, probably because German history holds little interest for most non-German readers. However, should the reader skip these parts of the book and read the sections on nation and race, propaganda and the development of the National Socialist Workers Party in its early years they will find it worthwhile. It should be borne in mind that this book was written long before Hitler became the leader of Germany and that it is unlikely that everything he says in the book would have been a precise guide to his later actions. It does however show the general principles and attitudes of Adolf Hitler to the world in which he lived, and is of course, seminal reading for anyone studying the subject.
