Publisher's Note
Although this monumental book was first ignored, it was a significant warning to the world for it contained an outline of Hitler's plans for his rise to power.
Industry Reviews
"Vitally interesting as is his account of his early struggles, of the war, of his political life and revolutionary attempts, what we must look for in his book is an answer to the question, What are the policies, what are the aims of this extraordinary man who today rules Germany with a rod of steel?...From this book we see what Hitler is in process of creating in Germany...there are pages and pages of attacks upon the Jews...what the Germans do in their own territory is their own business, except for one thing--the persecution and practical expulsion of the Jews....It is with sadness, tinged with fear for the world's future, that we read Hitler's hymn of hate against that race which has added so many names to the roll of the great in science, in medicine, in surgery, in music and the arts, in literature and all uplifting human endeavor."
New York Times Book Review - James W. Gerard (10/15/1933)
"For years 'Mein Kampf' stood as proof of the blindness and complacency of the world. In its pages Hitler announced--long before he came to power--a program of blood and terror in a self-revelation of such overwhelming frankness that few had the courage to believe it...That such a man could go so far toward realizing his ambitions--that is a phenomenon the world will ponder for centuries to come."
