About This Item
London: Jonathan Cape Ltd., . Very Good/Very Good. 1979. Hard Cover. 8vo 0224016482 Dust jacket complete, unclipped. Black cloth with bright gilt titling on spine. Illustrated end papers. No ownership marks. Illustrated. Photographs on plates. 319 pages clean and tight.'Deighton has a desire, unobtrusive but inflexible, to see the truth. He has an exceptionally just mind. In this account, which says a good deal in a short space, there is an account of Hitler, detached, unfussy, clear-eyed, as good as anything of the kind that I have read. Blitzkrieg is full of insights, quietly expressed but as a rule uncomfortably true.' C. P. Snow, .
