Hitler's Second Book (also marketed more dramatically as Hitler's Secret Book) has a lot of good material in it, and I recommend it -- but with two caveats:

(1) It is an unfinished manuscript, which is manifestly incomplete in places; and

(2) Hitler never released it for publication.

For these reasons, it should not be considered on the same level as Mein Kampf or his other published writings and speeches.

I use it for amplication and clarification on established Hitlerian thought, not as a source of new material.
