About This Item
London: Colin Smythe (Gerards Cross), Ltd., 1969. First English Edition (Za345) (R266). Hardcover in Dust Jacket. Very Good. 8vo (462 pages). Demolishes the myth, foisted by Rolf Hochhuth’s play, “The Soldiers,” that Churchill was implicated in the “murder” of Polish General Sikorski, whose death was certainly an accident. Thompson, a friend of Hochhuth’s, became alienated by the latter’s sensationalist charges and wrote this book to refute them. This is a very good copy of the First English edition, in an unclipped, later printing dust jacket (with reviews on the rear face) that has darkened a bit with age.
