This thought-provoking book is the last work of Ronald Lewin, one of England's most distinguished military historians. Lewin was fascinated with the complexities of Hitler's character and what made the Nazi leader tick. What were Hitler's shortcomings as a political leader, as a military commander, and as a man? In this book Lewin displays a sure grasp of the complicated makeup of one of the greatest evil geniuses of our time. Based on an impressive and wide-ranging study of many sources unfamiliar to the general reader, Hitler's Mistakes is an eminently readable and important work of history.

The Leeds Rifles is a detailed chronicle of the four Battalions of Riflemen who left Leeds for the Western Front. In 1914, just as now, they were more numerous and less fashionable than the City Battalion, The Pals and their full war time story has never been told. This volume describes their volunteer origins and how they came to be woven into the social fabric of Leeds from where they drew their enduring esprit de corps, discipline and resolve.
