Reception edit

The book was very unfavourably reviewed in the New Statesman by the historian Richard J. Evans,[1] who criticised various perceived factual errors and called it "valueless" (the review was subsequently shortlisted for the Hatchet Job of the Year award). The review sparked a feud between the two men.[2]
