Is this book good for learning history of Nazi Germany or is it not worth reading?

Ask on /his/.
I'll give you the answer over there.

My crochety grandpa who was in Vietnam recommended reading this. He also told me about how he fell off a plane he was working on and broke his back; apparently the US military was bombing the shit out of Cambodia at that time.

shirer's rise and fall was a good text in its day, but there's no need to read that when rj evan's third reich trilogy exists now.

It takes the nuremberg trials at face value and shirer constantly feels the need to inject his own opinion. It is best to read multiple sources so you can form your own opinion. I would recommend Hitler's Revolution by Richard Tedor after finishing The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich.
