Mein Kampf: eine kritische Edition.
2016184311Munich: Institut für Zeitgeschichte 2016. First "critical" edition third printing of the only scholarly edition of Mein Kampf. The copyright had been held by the Bavarian government who had deliberately kept it out of print for decades until its expiration at the end of 2015. Concerned that new editions might be marketed to sympathizers or read without historical context the Munich-based Institute for Contemporary History produced this annotated version. It included 3500 footnotes that provided context and challenged Hitler's assertions. The set was costly heavy and published without illustrations or decorative bindings. Even so the initial print run of 4000 copies released on 8 January 2016 sold out immediately. A second printing of 15000 copies followed and preparation for this third printing was underway before the end of the month. 2 vols large quarto. Original grey cloth spines and front covers lettered in brown. A fine copy. hardcover
