Takeover: Hitler's Final Rise to Power by Timothy W. Ryback
3.0
3 1/2 stars
This feels like an important read, and the parallels with modern US politics --particularly Tr_mp & Republican playbooks-- is indeed uncomfortable. The account is thorough, but could have maybe been cleaned-up and organized a bit more; I often got lost in details and the repetitiveness of situations, finding it difficult to hold interest. Worthwhile read, however, something like Erik Larson's "In the Garden of Beasts: Love, Terror, and an American Family in Hitler's Berlin" made for a more entertaining read without compromising the facts of Hitler's rise to power.
