Written and narrated by EDGAR LUSTGARTEN with Ewcn Solon as Hitler
To compare the Norwegian traitor Quisling with some of his Nazi contemporaries during the last war would be to compare a minnow with a shark. Nevertheless, ignored as he was by the majority of his fellow countrymen and treated with contempt by Hitler, he did accomplish one significant thing: he got his name into the Oxford English Dictionary.
