ABSTRACT

The information contained in this report has been obtained principally through direct interrogation. With regard to that part of Schellenberg’s story, however, which deals with his efforts in the peace negotiations of the last few weeks before capitulation, Schellenberg’s autobiographical statement, supplemented by further interrogation where necessary, has been used as a basis. This account of the events of that time was written in Sweden shortly after the surrender of Germany and it has been considered that it was more chronologically and factually accurate than his subsequent statements.
