The title of this book is a little misleading. This content was more of a comparison of racism in law between Nazi Germany and the United States after the Civil War. Still a valuable read. It gave me a lot to think about in terms of where we are today in the US and where current trends might lead. I would have benefitted from a fuller explanation of common law vs. code law, which was an important distinction that recurred throughout the book. Interestingly, the end touched on the harsh extremism and exceptionalism of today's American criminal justice system, noting that laws instituting severe punishments against habitual offenders (Three Strikes You're Out) echo similar Nazi laws.

5 stars for information
3 stars for clarity of delivery - a fair amount of unnecessary repetition
3 stars for not always knowing what was a quote and what was narration (audio version)
4 stars overall
