Putting the record straight about the last years of Rudolf Hess's life.

The last British Governor of Spandau Allied Prison puts the record straight about the final years of Rudolf Hess's life, and his ultimate suicide while in Allied custody. Lt Col Le Tissier authentically counters the many allegations, which have abounded, that the prisoner was an imposter, that he was kept in isolation and even that he was murdered. The book also gives some fascinating insights into life in Berlin as an island of democracy in a sea of Communism.
