Nicholas Goodrick-Clarke I.B.Tauris, London, 1992, £9.95. In his last paragraph the author concludes: ‘Books written about Nazi occultism between 1960 and 1975 were typically sensational and under-researched.

[…] As for ‘the pope’s audacious ratline venture’, Phayer argues that it was once again his anti-Communism that lay behind the operation.
