A good work from a quasi-Holocaust denier. Irving's storytelling is great and his research is rigorous in this book. He is fairly objective in this one. Once you know his biases towards the Nazis, or certain Nazis, you can find where he tries to whitewash history or make Göring look better. The most glaring stupidity is where he translates "final solution to the Jewish question" as the "final unraveling of the Jewish question." ( )

Book description

Amazon.com Book Description (ISBN 0380708248, Paperback)

Hermann Goring was the First World War combat pilot and "Ace" who served as the last commander of von Richtofen's "Flying Circus" and rose to become Hitler's Reichsmarschall; the "Second Man" of the Third Reich.

In this major biography, based on hitherto undiscovered diaries and private and official documents, David Irving tells how Goring connived, intrigued, and conspired to bring Adolf Hitler to power, how he directed National Socialist Germany's industrial resurgence, commanded the mighty Luftwaffe, (Air Force), and served as Hitler's buttress through the years of struggle, triumph, and decline.
