Hitler also wrote a book called ”Zweites Buch” (Second Book) in 1935, which was never published. The book discussed Hitler’s foreign policies.

3 An Excerpt from Mein Kampf + Analysis An Excerpt from Mein Kampf + Analysis This piece of text summarizes Hitler’s point he wanted to deliver with the entire Mein Kampf. Keeps talking about ”lower” and ”higher” races, without actually giving any proper argument as to why exactly is one race better than the other. Also mentions how two races intermixing ”lowers the standard of the higher race”, without any proper evidence. Talks of Nature as if it were a person or a divine being, with certain intentions for the human race.
