Inside the Gestapo: Hitler's Shadow Over the World

London: Pallas Publishing Co. Ltd.. Good. 1940. First Edition. Hardcover. 287 pages. "Perhaps the most startling of all books about Germany under the Nazi regime. Author worked for several years as a Gestapo agent, where he was immediately subordinate to Himmler. Provides a detailed account of the general organisation of the whole of the German Secret Police, and the inside story of the notorious purge (Night of the Long Knives) in June 1934. Author worked as a spy in the Saarbrucken territory before the plebiscite, and in Spain while Germany planned the Franco revolt. Most sensational of all is the story of the "White Book", collected by Dolfuss and Schuschnigg as a weapon against Hitler." - dust jacket (not included).
