I want to say Mein Kampf but I wonder how many people actually read it before Hitler came to power.

On that note, I've always wanted to get my hands on a copy just because I want to see what kind of insane ramblings it contains but there's basically no way to do that without looking like a neo-Nazi. I wonder if there's scans of it online.

    There was a joke in Germany during the war that Mein Kampf was like the Bible. Everyone had a copy but none had read it.

    I tried to read it once and couldn't. If you're not super into Hitler's racial grievances and Weimar politics, it's hard to understand.
