New York: Bantam Books, Date: 2007. 4th Printing. Trade Paperback. Very Good. 6x0x9. Fourth printing. Remainder mark, edge wear. 2007 Trade Paperback. viii, 374 pp. For the first time in one enthralling book, here is the incredible true story of the numerous attempts to assassinate Adolf Hitler and change the course of history.
