Inside the Fourth Reich: The Real Story of the Boys from Brazil NEW––BroDart Dust Jacket Cover Author: Erich Erdstein and Barbara Bean St. Martin's Press 1977 Erich Erdstein CAB Comment––Now protected inside a brand new BroDart cover, the dust jacket of “Inside The Fourth Reich” has a very 70s South American espionage vibe––it seems a top secret message, yet brazenly stamped and dated, and with a genuine tear and crumple in the upper right corner that fits the entire mood of this book. It looks as if someone has already torn into this document to discover the truth about what lurks just beneath the surface. The photo of author Erich Erdstein on the back of the dust jacket is cool classic spy, and definitely spells intrigue. But this is a true story about Nazis in South America, and not a James Bond fiction––therefore it is truly chilling. The logline on the cover says it all: The Real Story Of The Boys From Brazil. Kirkus Review: “The life story of an Austrian Jew driven out of Vienna as a teenager when Hitler took Austria. Erdstein went to Argentina--his parents followed five years later. Within a year he found himself wooed by police organizations in several neighboring countries, all of them interested in resisting any Nazi takeover in South America, which had a sizable German population. His finest moment may have been his first. While still a teenager he maneuvered the Uruguayan military authorities into sending a false message that British ships were arriving to capture the Graf Spee, a German U-boat straining the country's neutrality by hiding out in Montevideo harbor. The U-boat captain chose instead to scuttle his ship. Then Erdstein had 37 Nazi coffins dug up in a Montevideo graveyard: the coffins were filled with armaments, not dead U-boat crewmen. Much later he spent over a decade chasing Nazis who were hoping to revive the Third Reich in South America. Since he was working for South American police agencies, and not for the Israeli government, he had no interest in kidnaping top Nazis and sending them off to Jerusalem for trial--but he believes he shot to death Dr. Josef Mengele, the Nazi ""Angel of Death"" who had killed hundreds of thousands of Jews.” Always Great Things @ www.poetrope.com Books––Films––Music.
