Subtitle: How British Intelligence Broke Hitler's Deputy Author: Stephen McGinty  Publisher: Quercus () ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Condition: Very Good  Binding: Softcover Pages: 336 Dimensions: 19.8 x 12.9 x 2.3 cm +++ by Stephen McGinty +++ On 10 May , Rudolf Hess, then the Deputy Fuhrer, parachuted over Renfrewshire in Scotland on a mission to meet with the Duke of Hamilton, ostensibly to broker a peace deal with the British government. After being held in the Tower of London, he was transferred to Mytchett Place near Aldershot on 20 May, under the codename of 'Z'. The house was fitted with microphones and sound recording equipment, guarded by a battalion of soldiers and codenamed 'Camp Z'. Churchill's instructions were that Hess should be strictly isolated, with every effort taken to get any information out of him that could help change the course of the Second World War. Stephen McGinty uses documentation, contemporaneous reports, diaries, letters and memos to piece together a riveting account.   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers. The group started thirty years ago with one store in the quirky suburb of Yeoville and has grown through the years to a total of five shops, plus our online sales. Bookdealers is well-known for its collectable and used books. We also have a large variety of remaindered books sourced from around the world.  If you collect from one of our five branches there is no delivery charge.

Minimal signs of usage may include very minor creasing on the cover or on the spine.  336 pp.  On 10 May 1941, Rudolf Hess, then the Deputy Fuhrer, parachuted over Renfrewshire in Scotland on a mission to meet with the Duke of Hamilton, ostensibly to broker a peace deal with the British government. After being held in the Tower of London, he was transferred to Mytchett Place near Aldershot on 20 May, under the code name of Z. The house was fitted with microphones and sound recording equipment, guarded by a battalion of soldiers and code named Camp Z. Churchill's instructions were that Hess should be strictly isolated, with every effort taken to get any information out of him that could help change the course of the Second World War. Stephen McGinty uses documentation, contemporaneous reports, diaries, letters and memos to piece together a riveting account of the claustrophobia, paranoia and high-stakes gamesmanship being played out in an English country house. CAMP Z is a locked room mystery where the locked room is a man's mind that no one can conclude, with any degree of confidence, is sane.

1954 first edition hardcover with dust jacket in good condition, though some yellowing on some pages. R46 postage in SA. are the seven political war prisoners who survived the Nuremberg trials, and this is an account of their internment in Spandau, presumably from interviews of the personnel there and of others on the outside. Probably the most interesting is Rudolf Hess, who still dreams of regained power, but who lives in the fear of himself, in the rejection of his wife and son, and in an unpredictable state of mental instability. There is von Schirach, the former youth leader, who has inherited a fortune he will never spend; Speer, the ""clown prince""; the Admirals Doenitz and Raeder, who now have only each other to fight; Walter Funk and Baron von Neurath. Their wives and families and letters home; the ordeal of visits; the close security and censorship which prevails; their outdoor activities in the Garden of Eden (Anthony); their illnesses--- this revives the memory of men who are largely forgotten today- and since this is so, it is difficult to indicate what interest a book such as this will have.
