Book Reviews of The Third Reich: A New History

Book Review: Save your money
Summary: 1 Stars

I am very interested in developing an understanding of how and why the Nazis were able to take over Germany. With a sub-title of "A New History" I was looking forward to learning something "new" that I haven't learned from the first 100 books I've read on the subject. There was nothing "new" here and what is written and the writers style qualifies this book as one of the five worst books I have read on the subject. It is an extremely hard read since he uses compound sentences that string out for four or five lines. It requires very slow reading to get the point being made that often turns out to be his opinion, not a fact. Looks like the editor was out to lunch. Save your money and don't be fooled in buying this one!
