Hess’ solo-flight to Britain was one of the more interesting little episodes of the 20th century. Lots of gaps. You can paint it any which way.

Always thought Hess got a bad deal; he spent years in prison but it took courage to flee Germany as he did...

Read the editorial “REPRISAL” — replace “Nazi” with “Muslim” and it could have been written yesterday (except such an editorial would never be published in today’s NYT).

There is a very good novel written by Basil Heatter called The Einstein Plot that begins with Hess' little trip to Scotland. Fascinating book and well worth the effort to find.
