TELEGRAPH HISTORY BOOK OF THE YEAR How the British might have
handled Hitler differently remains one of history's greatest 'what
ifs'. Coffee with Hitler tells the astounding and poignant story,
for the first time, of a handful of amateur British intelligence
agents who wined, dined and befriended the leading National
Socialists between the wars. With support from royalty,
aristocracy, politicians and businessmen, they hoped to use the
much mythologised Anglo-German Fellowship as a vehicle to civilise
the Nazis. A pacifist Welsh historian, a Great War flying ace, and
a butterfly-collecting businessman offered the British government
better intelligence on the horrifying rise of the Nazis than anyone
else. Charles Spicer draws on newly discovered primary sources,
shedding light on the early career of Kim Philby, Winston
Churchill's approach to appeasement, the US entry into the war and
the Rudolf Hess affair.
