ISBN: 9780316857680.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor over 60 years, there has been an unprecedented cover-up by both the British Establishment and successive generations of historians about the flight of Hitlers Deputy Rudolf Hess to Scotland in May 1941. It has long been dismissed as the misguided attempt of a madman to make contact with a non-existent British peace party. Based on entirely new material from eyewitnesses, hitherto inaccessible archives, and intelligence sources, Double Standards reveals -- Despite official denials, Hess flew to Britain with Hitlers full knowledge.-- There was a substantial British peace party in 1941, which included most of the aristocracy -- and the Royal Family.-- There is substantial evidence that the prisoner who died in Spandau prison was not the real Rudolf Hess.-- The fate of the real Deputy Fuhrer was inextricably linked with that of the Duke of Kent.-- Winston Churchill guilefully used Hess to influence Hitler and change Britains fortunes in the war.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"LITTLE, BROWN","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44986926825525,"sku":"ByrdShop_0316857688","price":162.33,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9780316857680_6ed80e20-6dd0-40fa-8b73-374d137fa5db.jpg?v=1778747024","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/double-standards-the-rudolf-hess-coverup-9780316857680","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
