Historie

Discover the untold World War II story of a young man's courage and the saga of a dictator's pistol that continues to unfold today.

It's World War II. Young soldier Ira "Teen" Palm and his men burst into a Munich apartment, hoping to capture Adolf Hitler. Instead, they find an empty apartment ... and a golden gun. As bestselling authors Maurice Possley and John Woodbridge explore the story of the man and the gun, they examine a time and place that shaped men like Palm and transformed them into heroes.

As you trace the unexpected journey of Hitler's pistol within Hitler in the Crosshairs, you'll also learn:

• The never-before-told account of an assassination attempt on Hitler in Munich • The power of standing up for what you believe in • How to find strength through your own faith

Praise for Hitler in the Crosshairs:

"Here's a captivating tale of valor and devotion--to God, to spouse, to country--woven with newly disclosed details of an attempt to assassinate Adolf Hitler and the circuitous journey of Hitler's personal pistol. A masterful piece of historical detective work!"

--Lee Strobel, New York Times bestselling author of The Case for Christ

"Readers of Hitler in the Crosshairs will not be able to put down this page-turning and remarkable story. From the initial chapter until the book's concluding words, this fascinating account of courage, faith, and heroism is as gripping as it is deeply satisfying."

--David S. Dockery, president of International Alliance for Christian Education
