Review: Still worth the price . . .

This book was worth the price, although typos abounded (I sympathize); however, it was an interesting treatment of what might of been had the courageous von Stauffenberg succeeded; for world war two buffs, it is worth a try. This book suggests the concept that Himmler was almost fully aware of the July plot long before it happened, and many of the individuals behind it--including the brave principal. I wonder if this is proven, or part of the poetic license of the author. Admittedly, I am not a big fan of "alternative" history, but if you are probably this would earn an extra star. It strikes me as strange that the plotters didn't just empty a revolver into Hitler (they had access to him), because they were as good as dead anyway if Hitler lived. But, it is easy to be an armchair historian.
