    Just finished Da Vinci Code - it was okay, my GF should have my Angels & Demons soon -- or else I'll backhand her. I also just started Everything is Illuminated, so far so good =)

    No, but I am indeed reading this book soley because of his status as a Holocaust Denier. I want to know what this man could have possibly written to be sentenced to three years in jail. Why listen to biased news sources when I can read it straight from the horse's mouth and form my own opinions? It's like asking the Catholic Church if The Da Vinci Code is a good book or not. I may be ~200 pages into Hitler's War, but I can already see if is a far better written and sourced book than great's like Shirer's The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich. Your statement bothers me because you seem to act like I'm doing something questionable or wrong. I was brought up to hear both sides of an argument and not form a biased opinion based on my personal beliefs. If I did I'd probably be a Bush supporter!
    Don't take offence, I was just seeing why you were reading that book in my own abrasive style. I would probably read some of his work if I had the chance for much the same reasons. I've read Shirer's The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich which I enjoyed and I have read that Irving, whilst having questionable politics, is very knowledgable in his field.


    On topic: I am currently reading The Longman Anthology of Short Fiction. As the book is 2000 pages long it should take me a while to finish this one.

    Yes, but now you know all about the Third Reich.

    There are others you could read for perspective, but Shirer kinda wrote the Bible, there.
