mein kampf is something i have wanted to read. believe it or not i read "the rise and fall of the thord reich" in third grade. Didnt know what i grabbed off the shelf, but damn sure knew some of what was going on afgtrer i finshed.
Another good read...Ender's game and Ender's shadow, the Apprentice Adept and Bio of a Space tyrant series from Piers Anthony...the Dragonrider series from anne mccaffrey...the first six mind you.....
The rise and fall of the Third Reich, i have had that book now for about 30 years, had 3 goes at it and failed, i am really interested in all the Hitler stuff too, don't know why i couldn't get into it, maybe because it starts with Hitlers parents or Grandparents or something i believe....oh i dunno my head hurts now just thinking about it, i bought "Citizen Soldiers" a few years ago to take with me on holiday but then always change to something a bit lighter when the time comes.
