The authors of the book discovered numerous unpublished documents in England, Argentina, Germany and the USA. They debunk myths and expose lies concerning the escapes of the German Nazis and the transportation of large amounts of treasure, mainly gold, as well as documentation of the most valuable military projects of the German Reich, which were supposed to turn the tide of the war. The book uses documents from interrogations of the U-Boot commanders who were sent to a special POW camp near Washington for prisoners of exceptional importance.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When U-234 slipped out of a Norwegian harbor in March 1945 destined for Japan, it was loaded with some of the most technically advanced weaponry and electronic detection devices of the era, along with a select group of officials. En route, word came that Germany had surrendered, and the boat's commander suddenly found himself with a rogue submarine, a precious assortment of cargo, and two Japanese naval officers still at war. This dramatic account of the voyage offers an intriguing look at the individuals involved. One of these individuals was Luftwaffe General Ulrich Kessler, who was a member of Von Stauffeberg's Valkyrie conspiracy to assassinate of Hitler. Kessler was aboard U-234 to escape the wrath of Hitler, because he had been tabbed by Von Stauffeberg to replace Hermann Goering as the commander of the Luftwaffe. Scalia draws on U.S. Navy interrogation records, European and Japanese archives, and interviews with former U-234 crew members and other principals to develop a full portrait of the group. He also evaluates the technology of the armament on board, which included 560 kg. of uranium oxide, whose presence continues to provoke questions about a Nazi plan to build an atom bomb in Japan.

Book excerpt: An exceptional figure in the history of the German Navy, Wolfgang Luth was one of only seven men in the Wehrmacht to win Germany's highest combat decoration, the Knight's Cross with Oak Leaves, Swords, and Diamonds. At one time or another he operated in almost every theater of the undersea war, from Norway to the Indian Ocean, and became the second most successful German U-boat ace in World War II, sinking more than 220,000 tons of merchant shipping. A master in the art of military leadership, Luth was the youngest man to be appointed to the rank of captain and the youngest to become commandant of the German Naval Academy. Nevertheless, his accomplishments were overshadowed by those of other great aces, such as Prien, Kretschmer, and Topp. The publication of this book in hardcover in 1990 marked the first comprehensive study of Luth's life. Jordan Vause corrects the long neglect by providing an entertaining and authoritative biography that places the ace in the context of the war at sea. This new paperback edition includes corrections and additional information collected by the author over the past decade.

Book excerpt: This is a "fun but deadly" story, about East Coast Irish Twins, who worked for J..Edgar Hoover. The protagonist, JAMES "BLACKIE" BUTLER, is from Boston and did his undergraduate work robbing banks, with a degree for ten years, three of which were served on the ROCK! Then back home, took over the Winter Hill Gang. An old buddy from school, who became an FBI Agent, told him the FBI was hiring TEI's. So they cut a deal that turned devastating for both! For starters, they needed his help to break the North Boston LCN Italian Mob. Before the Appalachian Meet, the Bureau said - No National Crime Syndicate, next day - JEH started the Top Hoodlum Program in all FBI Offices in USA. They had to take care not to knock off a Race Track, when the boss was in attendance, "don't embarrass the Bureau". While they did not have a parade for BLACKIE, all soon learned "he was back in town" ! He worked overtime to become multi-millionaire Boston Drug Kingpin, whacking those who dared to get in his way. If you want whack job details, check out the press accounts under homicide. CAUTION - he is alleged to have whacked 19 PLUS - two were females he strangled to death! Not the guy you want your daughter to date. Some of the kills were aided by the law closing their eyes. A major casualty was the Boston Southie kids and young adults. They OD'd, became vegetables, committed suicide, due to the quantities ingested of Meth, Coke, etc., as the dealers said - "it was their choice"! Unfortunately this scenario goes hand and hand with hard - tough law enforcement, and some "agency in-fighting", in the race to scrape up the scum from the Southie streets, and its "companion - corruption"! Meanwhile, the press was on it regarding the homicides, real bodies and real coroner reports. BUT, no specific in depth reporting on the drug scourge. Without it, we focus on homicides, easier to cover with those grotesque images as they are ripped from the earth that they hugged for years. Then the mob burial detail told the cops where they were as a trade for immunity! Not to say that some in-depth work on the drug scourge is easy, BUT the more we do not dig into it, the more we guarantee it will continue! Yes, it is the USA drug appetite that fuels the Mexican production and distribution. Mexico has had thousands of street executions in last 15 years; all USA families have, or know those who have young loved ones, who got hooked and we attended their funerals! The Congress and the Administration needs to get off their collective asses and address the problem. The drug war losses cap the numbers we lost since the BIG WAR plus! For the DC crowd, they would rather focus on cocktail parties funded by the numerous lobbyists that choke the traffic on K St, NW, employ aides that write 1,000 page bills that no one reads before voting, none of them took the time from there career to serve the country in the military (just like their elected pols they work for), as they beef up the resume so we soon see them on the Sunday Morning Talkies. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON? MARK - THERE ,I SAID IT! The nemesis, is TOMMY TIERNAN, from Newark, NJ, from a blue collar upbringing, other side of the tracks, first of five siblings, first of parents, siblings and relatives to do college, no green stamps, just guts and determination!. As oldest of five boys, thanks to the Pope, started with fish on Fridays, as got older substituted it with Pizza. Dad an Irish Fire Captain, Mom a German grade school teacher and nurse. Grandfather an immigrant from Germany, a stone carver who did the Lions on the N.Y. Public Library. The five brothers lived in the Ironbound Section of "down neck" Newark, N.J. After the BIG WAR, they were joined by Mom's brother who lived through the Pacific War, finishing up with the invasion of Okinawa, where he survived constant Jap kamikaze attacks. All shared the same sleeping bedroom and pretty mu
