From the Introduction, "In a sense this is written for posterity, for to his contemporaries in Great Britain William Joyce - better known by his nickname of 'Lord Haw-Haw'-- needs no introduction." From Wikipedia: "William Brooke Joyce (24 April 1906 ? 3 January 1946), was an American-born fascist politician and Nazi propaganda broadcaster during World War II. He took German citizenship in 1940. Joyce was convicted of one count of high treason in 1945 and sentenced to death, with the Court of Appeal and the House of Lords both upholding his conviction. He was hanged on 3 January 1946, making him the last person to be executed for treason in the United Kingdom." (Wikipedia). Hardcover. Brown cloth binding with gilt decorative the cover.
