It's a real slog. Too much introspection, too much "not moving the story along."
I suppose I'll finish it, but it's not as good as "Interview."
Yeah, this book was twice as long as it needed to be. But, I finished it.
Next up...
I’m through the first couple of chapters. Good to start.

The Coming of the Third Reich
The Third Reich in Power
The Third Reich at WarEvan’s trilogy is excellent historiography although as you say heavy reading. His style though flows well and therefore readable. I read it a couple of years ago. The parts dealing with Nazi racial theories, policies and acts of genocide because of their depressing nature, took a lot of effort to get through on my part.
Just finished the first volume. It was quite "heavy". Very very well researched. I don't think that Adolf Hitler or the Nazis were mentioned until more than 1/3 through the book. I will take a break but will definitely want to try the #2 and #3 volumes.

800 pages of WWII naval history. Love it.

Finished "Why We Sleep" as a re-read. Much better the 2nd time, and some things that were a blurry memory got firmly seated in my brain.
One of the things that Walker says in the intro is that you don't have to read in order - feel free to skip what doesn't interest you.
Highly recommended on my first read - and, on the 2nd.
