Gerrards Cross, England: Colin Smythe, 1969 Book. Illus. by Photos. Near Fine. Hardcover. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Original black cloth on boards. The only writing in this book is that of the author, Carlos Thompson, whose written remarks, including a genial inscription, cover more than half of the dedication page. It appears that Thompson has sent this book, as well as a German edition, to a local woman. He has also laid in a photocopy, which is inscribed to the same woman, and signed, "C Th." The latter is a review by Robert Blake which appeared 11 May, 1969, in the Sunday Times. Basis of the book is the desire by the author to clear the reputation of Winston Churchill after it was suggested by others that Churchill was involved in the death of the Polish general, Sikorski, in July of 1943. Prominent in the story are the author, German playwright Rolf Hochhuth, Lawrence Olivier, and author David Irving, to whose previous book (Accident, the Death of General…
