review: Editorial Reviews Review "Author Robert J. Hutchinson's What Really Happened: The Death of Hitler is by turns an historical account, a Cold War political narrative, and a forensic detective story,while being consistently fascinating and engaging. Hutchinson recounts the details of the July 1944 attempt on Hitler's life, describes the surreal world of the Führerbunker in April 1945, and then goes on to explore the labyrinthine tales told by Josef Stalin and his successors about Hitler's true fate -- the better to sow confusion among the Western Powers and prey on their fears that Hitler had somehow engineered a last-minute escape from Berlin.Hutchinson pulls off a marvelous achievement with an unerring sense of the important details while maintaining a dynamic and vigorous narrative throughout. What Really Happened: The Death of Hitler is an excellent summation of more than seventy years of myth, mystery, andmisdirection about where, when, and how Adolf Hitler met his end."-- Daniel Allen Butler, author of Field Marshal: The Life and Death of Erwin Rommel. "An excellent primer and clarifier on the circumstances of Hitler's death. Robert Hutchinson provides a well-written antidote to 'fake history.'" -- Roger Moorhouse, British historian and author of Killing Hitler: The Plots, the Assassins, and the Dictator Who Cheated Death About the Author Robert J.
