"Here for the first time are disclosed secrets of the Nazi regime which were only known to two people - Hitler and his friend Hoffmann. For more than twenty years Heinrich Hoffmann was Adolf Hitler's most intimate and trusted friend. They were inseparable from the days when Hitler was an unknown Munich rabble-rouser to the end in the bunkers of Berlin in 1945. Hoffmann was a photographer: one of the world's greatest, and probably the most famous of the present era. His position is unique, for he not only lived through the most chaotic years in history as the Fuhrer's confidant - but is still alive to tell of them. Based upon personal knowledge rather than rumour and supposition, Heinrich Hoffmann's story is one of the social documents of our time." - dust jacket.

Above-average wear to dust jacket now preserved in archival-grade Brodart. A sound copy of this informative and fascinating account. Laid-in is a brief undated news clipping of Hoffmann's obituary.
