The Virus House tells the Real History of the attempt by Adolf Hitler’s nuclear scientists to build the atomic bomb. They were closer to success than people now like to believe…
Jusqu’en 1942, ils étaient en avance sur les Alliés. Ensuite, un mathématicien allemand a commis une erreur cruciale, qui a forcé l'équipe de physiciens atomiques à croire qu'ils ne pouvaient construire un réacteur nucléaire qu'avec de l'eau lourde.
La seule usine qui distillait ce liquide coûteux, goutte à goutte, se trouvait dans les montagnes du sud de la Norvège, vulnérable aux bombardements – et au sabotage des audacieuses équipes des opérations spéciales britanniques.
David Irving is the only historian to have spoken with Hitler’s atomic scientists on this theme and gained access to their private diaries and papers. He has used the Nazis’ secret atomic research files, locked away at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, as well.
The resulting book has been highly praised by Nobel prizewinner Werner Heisenberg, who headed the German effort, and his rival, Lieut.-General Leslie Groves, chief of the US “Manhattan Project.”
(This book was previously published in North America under the title “The German Atomic Bomb”.)
The Virus House has 326 pages.
