Description: WHEN HITLER ORDERED TERRORISM INSIDE AMERICATHIS RIVETING BOOK REVISITS an episode in World War II that has much relevance today - an attempt by a hostile country to wage terrorism within the United States. The enemy was Nazi Germany whose aim was to disrupt the production of tanks and planes and to destroy infrastructure like bridges and railroads. Eight saboteurs were sent to America by submarine, one team landing in Long Island and the other near Jacksonville, Florida.Their mission failed, they ended up in the hands of the FBI and the military authorities - and Hitler' grand scheme resulted in one of the largest mass executions in American history. Author Michael Dobbs, an accomplished news reporter and historian, tells the fascinating story of these men and what motivated them. His book reads like an exciting detective story.THIS COPY IS A FIRST EDITION in very nice condition with clean and crisp pages, firm and square hardcover binding and an intact dust-jacked that we have enhanced with a Brodart plastic cover.
