Quisling by Hans Fredrik Dahl
'Quisling' is used all over the world as a synonym for 'traitor' or 'treachery'. The Norwegian original Vidkun Quisling (18871945) earned his notoriety from siding with the Nazis. Dahl's 1999 biography traces Quisling's career through to the final drama of his trial and execution for high treason in 1945.
'… Dahl's work constitutes a welcome climax to Quisling studies, and has given us by far the fullest understanding of its subject, becoming, in fact, one of the outstanding biographies of the Second World War era'The Times Literary Supplement
'… scrupulously researched biography - Surely the definitive study.' Literary Review
