Gents-
I just began reading "Hitler" a biography written by British historian Ian Kershaw. The book is rather biblical; coming in at over 1,000 pages, but is probably the most accurate book to date, with new primary resource material. Heck, even the Germermans gave it high praise.
There's alot of speculation in regards to his relationship to Eva Braun, and his niece, with which he had an affair before her suicide.
Anybody reading anything?
Cheerz!

I would wonder where the news in the new Hitler biographie had come from. He's dead since `45 and it won't bring up any news at all I guess.
Speculations maybe but that won't bring any dead back at all.
If I'm reading, it's technical stuff or just a book, my brother gave me as a gift.
Before the last book I read was Flying Forts from Martin Caidin.

The Campbells made national news last month when a ShopRite supermarket refused to sell them a birthday cake with Adolf Hitler's name on it. The story generated a slew of angry Internet chatter.
Due to an accident at the bakery, a guy at work got a cake said: "Happy Birthday, Shithead!"
That's
almost as bad, I guess....
Stay tuned...
