Selling Hitler: The Extraordinary Story of the Con Job of the Century

In 1983, it seemed that one of the most startling discoveries of the century had been made, and that one of the world’s most sought-after documents had finally come to light – the private diaries of Adolf Hitler. What followed was a fiasco of fakery, greed, the duping of experts, and the exchange of enormous sums of money for world-wide publishing rights.
