A secret order given to Captain John Hodge
An address book that was found in Hitler's Reich Chancellery at the end of the Second World War by a British war crimes investigator has come to light 72 years later.
The directory reads like a 'who's who of evil' and contains the names, addresses and telephone numbers of the hierarchy of the Nazi party.
Among the 200 names listed are SS monster Heinrich Himmler, propoganda sadist Joseph Goebbels and Luftwaffe chief Hermann Goering.
The book was found in 1945 in a desk drawer in the chancellery by Capt John Hodge. It is being sold by Henry Aldridge and Son of Devizes, Wilts, for £15,000.
