Category: Biography & Autobiography

In this fascinating piece of historical detective work ? the result of several years? research and the interrogation of numerous surviving witnesses ? Michael Bloch has penetrated one of the great mysteries of the Second World War: the plot to bring the Duke of Windsor under German power on the eve of the Battle of Britain, a plot which the Duke himself is sometimes said to have given encouragement. A work of historical sleuthing in the classic tradition, combining powerful writing with scrupulous scholarship.
