I hate this book; I’m just going to state it from the beginning. I will never write a review for a book having read only half of it—in this case 230 pages. For me, I have to read the entirety of a book to write a good and comprehensive review. But I hate this book so much that I’m willing to make an exception, and I hate it for one simple reason: The title is completely misleading.

If you want to understand Adolf Hitler, not what he did, but why he did, then this is a must-read. Only in the pages of Mein Kampf do we get in the mind of Germany’s future dictator and truly understand his motives and vision of reality—a vision stained by social Darwinism and anti-Semitism.
