From the February 26, 2015, Chicago Tribune by Anthony Faiola.
SOME SEE HISTORICAL TOOL; OTHERS FEAR A FORUM FOR HITLER.
"This book is too dangerous for the general public," library historian Florian Sepp warns. "Mein Kampf is Adolf Hitler's autobiographical manifesto of hate. It is restricted at the Bavarian State Library.
"Nevertheless, the book that once served as a kind of Nazi bible and was banned from domestic reprints since the end of World War II, will soon be returning to German bookstores.
"The prohibition on reissue for years was upheld by the state of Bavaria, which owns the German copyright and legally blocked attempts to duplicate it." Those rights expire in December and the first print run of it since Hitler's death will be out early next year.
This reissue has caused a whole lot of controversy.

The USS North Carolina (BB-55) My all-time favorite warship. As an elementary school student in North Carolina, I donated nickels and dimes to save this ship back in the early sixties.
