Description
The Final Defeat of Nazi Germany: A Story from the German Side In May 1945, as Allied forces closed in on Berlin, it seemed that the war would be over by Christmas. But the German Army refused to surrender, and the battle for its final defeat was fought by junior officers and ordinary soldiers who had never known a world without war. This book tells the story of Nazi Germany's last stand through the voices of those who witnessed it firsthand. It is a story that has often been overlooked in favour of accounts of Hitler and his top generals, but one that reveals the human cost of defeat and the struggle to come to terms with the consequences of a lost war. Jonathan Trigg explores this pivotal moment in history, shedding light on the experiences of those who fought and survived the final days of the Third Reich.
