I've read the book as part of my "Important Historic Works" reading project. Even the Communist Manifesto is kinda well put together, also it at least ends quickly. Reading Mein Kampf was... well, it was like reading any other long-winded and rambling manifesto.

I'll put it this way, Infantry Attacks is a far better autobiographical text from the era and... organization. And really all it is is Rommel bragging about what hot shit he was during the Great War and talking about infantry tactics. I get that it's a different genre, but like I said, rambling manifestos aren't fun to read.
