A rare glimpse into the decisions involved in the making of Hitler's homes and into the sheer power of the propaganda that influenced how the world saw him. Grey cloth boards, gilt title to spine. B/w & a few colour illustrations. x and 373 pages. ISBN: 9780300183818. A lovely copy. Pictorial dustwrapper has a few minor scuffs.
