*A Telegraph and Spectator Best Book of the Year*

The fascinating story of how an eccentric group of intelligence agents used amateur diplomacy to penetrate the Nazi high command in an effort to prevent the start of World War II.

"How might the British have handled Hitler differently?" remains one of history's greatest "what ifs."

Coffee with Hitler tells the astounding story of how a handful of amateur British intelligence agents wined, dined, and befriended the leading National Socialists between the wars. With support from royalty, aristocracy, politicians, and businessmen, they hoped to use the recently founded Anglo-German Fellowship as a vehicle to civilize and enlighten the Nazis.

At the heart of the story are a pacifist Welsh historian, a World War I flying ace, and a butterfly-collecting businessman, who together offered the British government better intelligence on the horrifying rise of the Nazis than any other agents. Though they were only minor players in the terrible drama of Europe's descent into its second twentieth-century war, these three protagonists operated within the British Establishment. They infiltrated the Nazi high command deeper than any other spies, relaying accurate intelligence to both their government and to its anti-appeasing critics. Straddling the porous border between hard and soft diplomacy, their activities fuelled tensions between the amateur and the professional diplomats in both London and Berlin. Having established a personal rapport with President Franklin D. Roosevelt, they delivered intelligence to him directly, too, paving the way for American military support for Great Britain against the Nazi threat.

The settings for their public efforts ranged from tea parties in Downing Street, banquets at London's best hotels, and the Coronation of George VI to coffee and cake at Hitler's Bavarian mountain home, champagne galas at the Berlin Olympics, and afternoon receptions at the Nuremberg Rallies. More private encounters between the elites of both powers were nurtured by shooting weekends at English country homes, whisky drinking sessions at German estates, discreet meetings in London apartments, and whispered exchanges in the corridors of embassies and foreign ministries.

Soft, lint-free, and gentle, just a bit thin
Size: 100 Count (Pack of 3), Set name: Classic
These Cliganic cotton rounds are very soft, gentle on the skin, and truly lint-free. I use them daily for makeup removal and skincare, and they feel high quality and comfortable, even on sensitive skin. I also appreciate that they’re made from 100% pure cotton and are hypoallergenic. They do a great job removing makeup and applying toner without falling apart or leaving residue behind. The quantity is excellent as well, 300 rounds is a great value and lasts a long time. The only reason I’m giving four stars instead of five is that the pads are a bit thin. They still work well, but I sometimes need to use two instead of one, especially for heavier makeup. Overall, these are reliable, gentle cotton rounds that perform well and are a great option for everyday skincare. I would definitely purchase them again.
