I managed to finish this one. In terms of pacing, it is a bit slow and dry at times. However, it does give a pretty good glimpse of the kinds of books Hitler collected. What I found fascinating is how the author looks at Hitler's markings and notes in order to get a sense of what Hitler may have been thinking or paying attention to at the time. The book covers a selection of items from Hitler's personal library as a way to look at his life. I certainly recommend it but plan on taking some time to read it. It is an interesting and different look at the man as opposed to the many biographies that are out there. So, in that regard, it would be a good recommendation. Also, if you just like books about the history of books, this is a pretty good choice.
