Customer Reviews

Don't judge book by it's ugly cover.

After seeing their report on the learning channel, I decided to read the book. I was not disappointed. It is chock full of little blurbs of information about Hitler and his last days in the bunker. It comes across as an extremely long magazine article instead of a heavy "study" undertaken by college students. I recommend it as fluff reading for a vacation getaway, but for sincere hitler nuts its not enough.

A book whith a teory that Hitler scapes from the bunker.

The book Was he? by Miguel Rodriguez, has a teory of how Hitler scapes from the bunker in 1945. Even in Ada Petrova affirme that a forence doctor said that is impossible that Eva Braun's curpse founded was hers. In Was he? Chapter 12 resolve some misteries in Petrova book. Why Hitler change his all life physician Dr. Morell to Dr. Ludwig Stumpffeger, Why did Hitler called Robert Ritter von Greim in and exposed him by making him fly over half Germany, where the enemy's military aircrafts were flying in constant vigilance? Why so many German fighter planes were used to protect the airplane of von Greim, many of them shoot down during the trip, so that Hitler would tell him what he could have told him over the phone?. Why Hitler send to murder Hermann Fegelein who was husband of Braun's sister and Eva Braun don't even blink? Why the pick Walter Wagner to solemnize the marriage? If it took them a while to locate him it was because of the bombing to which Berlin was being subject. It would have been easier and less risky to use any other registrar, because in the the other Bunker, next to that of the Führer, they could have found someone suitable and the required documentation. Why when Hitler and Braun enter in the room to take "suicide", he has to go out of his chambers once more and to say goodbye for a second time. What is it? he repent or was not really willing to die? Why they found "Hitler's corpse with the shot and the scyanide capsule at the same time? Every thing is answer in This book.
