Their weirdest hour

The Trojan War was essentially just a piratical kidnap caper gone wrong, but it produced tales of gods and monsters, magic and secret survivals. How many more legends, then, can the mightiest conflict in human history create? Even during the war, writers dreamed up alternate endings, and fliers saw strange lights in the sky that became a mythology all their own. America's first native-born gods leaped tall buildings and battled the Axis. Before Hitler's ashes had cooled, there were whispers that he had escaped to a hidden fortress. The Third Reich, born of conspiracy, openly embraced irrational sorceries and boasted of wondrous superweapons, while perpetrating one of the mankind's most unthinkable evils.

This book is about all of that. For starters.
