Talking to Rudolf Hess
Author: Desmond ZwarPublisher: The History Press
ISBN: 0752462490
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 220
Book Description
Rudolf Hess was Adolf Hitler's Deputy Führer until, in 1941, he flew to Scotland, ostensibly to negotiate peace between Germany and Britain. Captured by the British, he was held for the rest of the War, before being convicted of war crimes at the Nuremberg Trials in 1946. Desmond Zwar collaborated with Col. Burton C. Andrus, who was Commandant of Nuremberg Prison during the Trials, on his book The Infamous of Nuremberg, and with Col. Eugene K. Bird, US Governor of Spandau Prison (where Hess was held for over forty years), on The Loneliest Man in the World. For reasons of practicality, neither of these books told the full story, which is now revealed for the first time in Talking to Rudolf Hess. As well as his interviews with Hess and others, Zwar tells the story of how this book came to be written, including how Hess hid proofs in his underpants, how Bird was sacked by the US Army and how the CIA tried to recover the transcripts.

Category : Fiction

Pages : 214
Book Description
Hess's life story in itself makes for fascinating reading and D. Eric Sturdy has interwoven a fictional aspect into Hess's biography and created a plausible story involving Britain's MI6, America's CIA, the Soviet KGB and the foremost politicians of the day. Rudolf Hess's parentage and family connections in Germany are well established, as is his involvement in World War I when he was seriously wounded and learnt to fly during the last months of the war. Hess's enlistment and advancement in the Nazi Party after the 1918 armistice, and his promotion to become Adolf Hitler's Deputy Fuhrer in the 1930s, is again a matter of historical fact, and the Nazi hierarchy described in the book existed and worked with Hess. Likewise, after Hess's peace-making flight to Britain on 10th May 1941, military personnel, doctors, politicians and MI6 agents were known to have been involved during his captivity at Mytchett Place in Aldershot and Maindiff Court in Abergavenny The author's experience at Spandau Prison in 1952 and 1953 generated an enduring interest in the fate of the seven Nazi war criminals in custody. The sole Nazi figure still shrouded in mystery is "Rudolf Hess." Doppelganger theorists have made a strong case to prove that Prisoner No.7's "suicide" was a murder plot. The Author has strived to unravel the minefield of information surrounding the identity of Prisoner No. 7 and, in the light of information currently available, the truth about his suicide and has recorded a fictional scenario about the ultimate fate of the "real" Rudolph Hess.

The Flight of Rudolf Hess

Pages : 201
Book Description
On 10 May 1941, Rudolf Hess - Deputy Fuhrer of the Third Reich - embarked on his astonishing flight from Augsburg to Scotland. At dusk the same day, he parachuted on to a Scottish moor and was taken into custody. His arrival provoked widespread curiosity and speculation, which has continued to this day. Why did Hess fly to Scotland? Had Hitler authorized him to attempt to negotiate peace? Was British Intelligence involved? What was his state of mind at the time? Drawing on a variety of reliable archive and eyewitness sources in Britain, Germany and the USA, authors Roy Conyers Nesbit and Georges van Acker have written what must be the most objective assessment of the Hess' story yet to be published. Their compelling narrative not only dispels many of the extraordinary conspiracy theories, but also uncovers some intriguing new facts.
