Hitler's Table Talk 1941-1944

This is an intimate and in depth view of the private thoughts of a true genius, unfortunately one who used terrible, evil means to his ends. Every word Hitler spoke at meals with his "inner circle" was recorded from 1941 until 1944, when his world began to come apart. The material was gathered with comment by the preeminent English historian of the Third Reich, Sir Hugh Trevor-Roper. The Cameron - Stevens translation is quite readable and the foreward by Gerhard Weinberg helps put the material in perspective. This is an important book for anyone with an interest in the Second World War and its causes.
