Haw-Haw

William and Margaret Joyce – Lord and Lady Haw-Haw – became one of the most mythologized, feared and ridiculed partnerships of the Second World War. His ‘Germany Calling’ broadcasts and her pro-Nazi wireless talks were part of the very fabric of the Home Front. Yet, when the couple were captured in May 1945, only William was charged with high treason - despite its becoming apparent that he wasn`t actually a British subject.Authorized by William Joyce’s daughter, Heather, and based on new interviews and unpublished letters, diaries and recently declassified Secret Service files, Haw-Haw is a meticulously researched biography: an incisive and shocking study of two people whose beliefs overrode everything.`Makes Joyce`s belief in the eventual victory of British fascism seem credible to today`s readers... masterful use of source material` James Wood, Scotland on Sunday`Exciting and endlessly fascinating` Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday (5 stars)`Well-researched and fast-paced` Michael Burleigh, Sunday Times
