It was to my surprise as I recently discovered the English version of " Mein Kempf " is available at a local public library.I've always thought it's one of those books in forever banishment.

One passage in this book is worthy of noting,Hitler simply described Jews embodied various European nationalities in fluent speaking tongues without actually lost their Hebrew heritage.

I would like to know if this book is in circulation through out Europe,are countries there legislatively ban it.Is there renewed interest and popularity among discontent native European population ?

In Italy you can't find this book in a normal bookshop, as the Jews community would openly be against that.
However it is available in some flea market in Italian too, I saw it and it doesn't have an ISBN number or official publisher. at least until 1998

As far as I know it has always been openly available in the UK. My local bookstore stocks it. My Grandfather read it after the war to find out what all the crap was about.

At least for Germany I can say that the book is not banned, but the state of Bavaria has all publishing rights and simply chooses not to publish it anymore.
