Format: Paperback

Condition: Standard Secondhand — £1.00
What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Zusammenfassung: "Il mesurait deux mètres, mais on le surnommait Putzi, " petit bonhomme ". Marchand d'art dans le New York bohème des années 1910, musicien à ses heures, Ernst Hanfstaengl devint dix ans plus tard le confident et le pianiste d'Hitler. Cet excentrique, jalousé par les nazis, était fasciné par leur chef, à qui il offrit de l'argent, une famille, et des airs de Wagner à toute heure du jour et de la nuit. Il rêvait d'honneurs et d'une alliance entre l'Allemagne et les Etats-Unis, ses deux patries. Nommé responsable de la presse étrangère du Reich en 1933, il crut en son destin. Il n'obtint que la disgrâce. Son incroyable exil le conduisit jusqu'à Roosevelt, qui pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale fit de lui son principal informateur sur le Führer. Pour les uns il fut un traître ou un bouffon sans conséquence, pour les autres, l'un des artisans du mal. Son histoire tragique, burlesque, nimbée de mystère, est celle d'un héros de roman. Le roman d'un siècle de splendeur et de désastre, où l'on croise Goebbels, Goring et les soeurs Mitford, mais aussi Thomas Mann, Carl Jung ou encore Romy Schneider."--Page 4 of cover.
