About this deal

Anyone interested in this story, unless you're a Nazi or a historian, I would strongly urge that you skip part one and go directly to part two. Did Bormann and Nazis manage to negotiate sweetheart deals as this book suggests to ensure a cover-up and a ruse? Stories about Nazis being allowed to flee Europe (even while being tracked by enemy governments), under the protection of "higher authorities" are just some of the outrages documented in the book. Filming began in September 2008, but was cut short when financiers pulled out due to the worldwide financial crisis. The book does a fair job trying to discredit the official story of Hitler's suicide death as told in Hugh Trevor-Roper's classic book The Last Days of Adolph Hitler (which I haven't read, admittedly, as of this writing), but one wishes the authors had more explicitly taken those assertions and made point-by-point refutations of them rather than trying to discredit Trevor-Roper's competence and credentials.

In the end, the smartest character in the book, perhaps not surprisingly, turns out to be Evita, who commandeered one of the greatest heists in history by stealing billions entrusted to her by senior Nazi, Martin Bormann. S. intelligence agencies were aware that Hitler was in Argentina, and that significant funds were also taken from Germany to Argentina and that these were later stolen by Bormann. Led by Disraeli at the Congress of Berlin, the rest of Europe warned her back: the integrity of the Ottoman Empire must be maintained.

According to the film-makers, Hitler's escape was organized by Martin Bormann, who also fled to Argentina, where he posed as a businessman in Buenos Aires and was aided and abetted by the Government of Juan Perón. Gerrard Williams, one of the authors of this book, struck us as determined British reporter willing to go anywhere to ask his questions, although he is not the only investigator. A poor condition book can still make a good reading copy but is generally not collectible unless the item is very scarce. And then there's the fact that the body of Martin Bormann, Hitler's major domo who was supposedly tooling around South America for years after the war, was actually unearthed years after WWII in Berlin, right around the spot a witness saw him die in May 1945. As late as 1952, Eisenhower declared: “We have been unable to unearth one bit of tangible evidence of Hitler's death.

Although the authors introduce this concept early in the book, they never quite explore it fully or tie up those loose ends later in the story.The outer appearances of this book and its initial passages suggest an intriguing story about Hitler surviving.

FBI files offer descriptions of eyewitness accounts and individuals who worked and cared for Hitler in his dying days. As the recent NSA revelations prove, yet again, citizens who give their governments a few inches should not be surprised that miles and miles are taken instead. The "evidence" for this is a claim by a single "facial recognition expert" that some photos of Hitler taken on 20 March 1945 do not in fact depict Hitler, with no other backup of even this claim.For items that are dispatched using our standard service, we ask that you wait 14 days from the date of dispatch before reporting any items as undelivered. He wasn’t a scientist and the Americans and Russians between them recruited the ex-Nazi scientific corps for their own efforts quite nicely without Hitler, thank you very much (check up Werner von Braun sometime). The book's subject is of course about Adolf Hitler, but it is Martin Bormann who takes centre stage as we read of his plans and the execution for Hitler's escape and relocation to Argentina. Claudia Rankine's groundbreaking Citizen: An American Lyric and other books have inspired programming and sparked conversations in schools, universities, and communities across the country. As someone who is an avid WW2 buff, I am always intrigued by that period of time and what justice was finally meted out at the end of the war by the victors.
