Read my REVIEW and JUDGE for YOURSELFBy CMP3Enjoyed the television adaptation of this book so much; I wanted to find out more. Well; watch the television adaptation and save your money. This book is more the size of a paperback - a thin paperback.I thought the dimensions on AMAZON looked wrong and upon receiving the book I was correct. Expecting a book of a full size - NOT! Like I said the size of a paperback book with a hard cover. Next; the 176 pages listed were achieved by using an extremely HUGE font to fill up the pages and get the176 pages. Could easily be 100 pages if a normal font was used.Nothing new as far as information related to the television series. The book as an companion piece - maybe so. But; if you have not seen the television series - for me that is where money needs to be spent; not on this book.Very seldom do I give reviews of this type; but this is pretty much a rip off. And..... needs to get their product descriptions correct.5 of 8 people found the following review helpful. Hitler's Actual Escape From GermanyBy Lewis S Robinson; IIII enjoyed Corsi's book very much and it did contain some new and good information about Hitler; but it did not offer an eyewitness account of how he actually escaped Nazi Germany and why he wasn't in the bunker on April 29 or April 30; 1045. My father-in-law was a POW in Germany and was an eyewitness to Hitler's actual whereabouts at that time. His book has been published; registered with the US Copyright Office; and will be available on in the very near future.
