Paul Manning's Bormann, Nazi in Exile that linked (free download) by R K Locke above is excellent. So too are William Stevenson's The Bormann Brotherhood (which probably is also free available to download), and Ladislas Farago's Aftermath - although Farago was silly to trust Allen Dulles as a source, since Dulles screwed him by providing a picture of Bormann in Argentina in the post war years for publication in his book that was later proved to be false. Also, one of Hugh Thomas's (the former surgeon and forensic expert - not the historian) books, and I now forget which one (but not the Himmler or Rudolf Hess - so must be the Hitler & Eva Braun one I guess) publishes Paraguayan intelligence or police files that reveal Bormann died in Paraguay (but I can't now remember the date, but believe it was late 1970's??).
So much propaganda and lies have been written about Bormann's supposed death in Berlin in 1945, and any stories attacking this authorized version of history have been so ruthlessly attacked (where possible) that one has to conclude that Bormann's survival is not just something that Germany had to keep secret but the US too. If this is the case, and I believe it to be, then it is hard not to conclude that Bormann either had information that would badly embarrass both nations, or he and his Brotherhood had worked with both nations in the final days of the war and/or post war.
Crazy fool that I am, I also now consider the evidence that Hitler & Braun survived the war and escaped to Argentina to be established.
I know that you are not a "crazy fool". Nevertheless I find both scenarios hard to believe. I am well aware of the power of received wisdom and the shortcomings of the official narrative, i.e. that TPTB lie to us most of the time, but do not exclude the possibility that our institutions may actually speak the truth to us every once in a while.
If I find the time I will check out the sources you and Mr. Locke mention. Thank you very much.
