Well, your accessment is accurate, 'The Prise' is a good one, 'None Dare Call It Treason' is another; 'Who Will Tell THe People'; The Nazi Seizure of Power'....There is a three volume set (I have only Two of the Volumes)...it is a documentaion of Nazi History...unbaised, it just tells what happened, how, and cites numerous letters documents, etc; without offering opinions of the authors. It is by far the most accurate historic review...and sadly...out of print.

Silverado,... Fortunate Son,.....Every Knee Shall Bow

Read everything by Gerry Spence...and Noam Chomsky......

And...Read... the Marquis de Sade's works.....and read his history, why he was imprisoned...it's not about the torture babe.

In no particular order: The Mind Parasites, by Colin Wilson; Demian and Siddartha, by Hesse; The Sirens of Titan, Mother Night, Cat's Cradle, Slaughterhouse Five, and Breakfast of Champions, by Vonnegut; Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, by Pirsig; Atlas Shrugged, We the Living, and Anthem, by Rand (helped me to reassure myself that I could see through at least some bullshit, even when it's attractively packaged); 1984, by Orwell; Catch 22, by Heller; and The Hitchiker's Guide to the Galaxy, by Trumbull.
