If you take out all the racist propaganda, this is a 5-star book. Chapter 37 in particular should be ripped out. After reading that, I would have given this 1 star, if not for the extremely good ending of the book. The last, oh, about 8 chapters really got me interested. Such a relief to see a terrible person get what they deserve.
