So, this made me start looking for old books about Patton. Looked to see if Robert Payne maybe had written anything about him.

Found about "The Roman Triumph", 1964, written by him. Mentioned in the jewpedia article on Payne, but not listed in his list of novels, just a reference. Thought that was weird.

Started looking for the book. Amazon has one sketchy seller selling a possible edition. That's it. Can't find an online version of it.

Mentioned here, so it definitely exists.

I wonder why the powers-that-be don't want us reading this book. It's supposed to just be a recount of what happened when the war hero's of Rome returned.

Roman Triumph

I haven't been able to find a pdf or ebook format of that book just yet, but I've only done a few minutes of searching so far.

However, I did find it available on archive for borrowing: https://archive.org/details/romantriumph0000payn/page/n5/mode/2up

Title states by Payne, Pierre Stephen R, but the book is the 1962 print by Robert Payne that you referenced. It can be read on-page, just not downloaded as far as I know.

I'll look more later for a downloadable copy.

Use your words like an adult, fucking nigger. Or worse, are you a kike? Silently downvoting my comment that was trying to help them find the pdf of that book they are looking for.

Fucking filth.


@krypt_o I managed to scrape the pdf of that book from this site: https://www.indianculture.gov.in/roman-triumph

I had to manually activate a hidden download button through console to get it to work, but the downloaded pdf isn't ordered like a normal pdf with organized chapters. Each page is its own chapter. The pdf is 51mb as it is also illustrated.

You can go to that page and then right-click the pdf's frame and open it in its own tab: https://www.indianculture.gov.in/libraries/pdf.js/web/viewer.html?file=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.indianculture.gov.in%2Fsystem%2Ffiles%2FdigitalFilesICWeb%2Fasirepository%2F14796%2F43437.pdf

Then open your developer console (firefox ctrl+shift+k) and enter this to manually trigger the download button: document.getElementById('download').click()

I'll try to upload it to catbox but it takes a very long time to upload large files like this if I can get it to successfully upload - catbox often times out a handful of MB into uploads for me due to my slow net upload speed.

Will look into working out scraping borrow-only books from archive.org in the future.

@krypt_o

Uploading the book to catbox managed to complete successfully. That's the first time for me when uploading a file this large.

I didn't edit the book to fix all of it to be in chapters like a normal book though. I might do that at some point in the future.

I hope this is useful to you.
