Actually, as I read a little bit too fast I have just finished this week the following books:

"The rise and fall of nazi Germany" by T.L. Jarman, which is just EXCELLENT! It isn't focused much into the war affairs, but it includes the historical, political, cultural and phylosophical analysis of the Third Reich.

"Hitler 1889-1936" by professor Ian Kershaw. An exhaustive biography of Adolf Hitler. It has so many sources and details that it is beyond excellence.

"The perfume" by Patrick Süskind.

"The Prince" by Niccolò Machiavelli... Ha! That's politics!

"The French foreign legion" by Martin Windrow.

I have started reading:

"Rommel as military commander" by Ronald Lewin. Let's see if he was THAT good... [img]tongue.gif[/img] [img]tongue.gif[/img]

"Hitler 1936-1945" If it is like the first volume: And it focuses on the war a lot!

And also, I must read a war book collection I have recently purchase. Among its main titles it includes: "British tanks in North Africa", "Polish tanks 1939-1945", "The heavy tanks JS-II and JS-III", "Mechanised infantry", "The medium tank Panzer III", "The medium tank Panzer IV", "Panzer division", "The long range desert group", etc., etc.

The collection's name: TANKS
