Negative Positive
Title: Interesting subject, if you can decode the writing style
Review: I read about one third of this book before giving up. The subject is very interesting, but the writing style is complex, confused and hard to follow. The author uses rare words for their own sake not for clarity. The sentence construction is obtuse and unclear. He seems to be trying to impress as an intellectual, but he fails to present a clear picture of what happened and when. Michael Burleigh badly needs to meet Rudolf Flesch.
