Description

The private diaries of Adolf Hitler were hailed as one of the most startling discoveries of the century, but their publication was marred by a fiasco of fakery, greed, and expert deception. The story of how these diaries came to light and the extraordinary sums of money that were exchanged for their publication rights is a tale of intrigue and deception. As the truth behind the diaries' authenticity began to unravel, a complex web of deceit and manipulation was revealed. The events that followed were a stark reminder of the power of information and the lengths to which people will go to profit from it. This book tells the story of the Hitler diaries, a story of greed, deception, and the pursuit of knowledge.
