First printing hardcover, stated. Black cloth with red lettering on the cover. Very slight outward bowing, bookplate and markings in front endpapers. Jacket is near fine; clipped, minor edge-wear, spine is sunned. Includes four photographic illustrations. Laid in, an original newspaper clipping of the New York Times book review by Shepard Stone, "Exit Adolf: Or, Goetterdaemmerung Without Music".

His book describes the last ten days of Hitler's life with sardonic humor and drama.
