Synopsis
The true story of Count Laszlo Almasy, the Hungarian explorer and hero of the film The English Patient, is told in this book. The real tale was first revealed in MI5 files released to the National Archives and now John Bierman, former BBC correspondent, has filled in the gaps to tell an astounding tale of intrigue. In truth, Almasy was a bungling Nazi intelligence officer who, according to his MI5 file, was very ugly and shabbily dressed, with a fat and pendulous nose, drooping shoulders and a nervous tic., More than forty years after his death, Laszlo Almasy's name would become famous in Anthony Minghella's film The English Patient. But who was he really? Was he a spy? Is so, for whom--the Allies or the Germans? John Bierman's wide-ranging investigation of Almasy's life and career reveals an even more complex and enigmatic figure than Hollywood allowed.

- n***d (50)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseExcellent seller. Package was delayed ( by bad weather) and then misplaced at PO( placed in wrong box #) but I contacted the seller and they responded quickly and I got my item today. This seller went the extra mile and I would highly recommend them and will shop here again. I also want to say the price for this complete hard to find item was way below most of the other listings. Condition was good as stated, and although I've only watched the first disc it's quality is good.

- 6***t (480)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchasePurchasing form this company can at times be frustrating due to items never arriving, very low shipping time and the inability to track the items. But I gave them another chance and purchased many maps and books over the past few months and have received all of them. Last year, it was hit and miss. All items were in the condition as described. Packaging is minimal. The only downside is extremely slow shipping. I rate them a C+. Nothing to gloat about but eventually you will get what you wanted.
