Did Hitler Escape Germany in 1945?
New Book Presents Stunning Account of the Last Days of the Reich
Grey Wolf: The Escape of Adolf Hitler by Simon Dunstan and Gerrard Williams | Hardcover, 384 pages, US$24.95 Publication Date: October 4, 2011
On April 27, 1945, Adolf Hitler spoke briefly with one of the SS soldiers standing guard outside the Führerbunker, the last refuge of the inner circle of the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. “Germany,” he said, “can hope for the future only if the whole world thinks I am dead.”
It seems impossible to believe that Adolf Hitler could not only have escaped Germany but, in fact, survived in relative comfort in Argentina until his death of natural causes in 1962. Simon Dunstan and Gerrard Williams’ new book Grey Wolf: The Escape of Adolf Hitler, which released earlier this month, presents a remarkable, linear account of a sequence of shadowy events occurring in the final days of World War II that is neatly timelined and meticulously sourced.
