Klappentext zu „The End “
In almost every major war there comes a point where defeat looms for one side and its rulers cut a deal with victors, if only in an attempt to save their own skins. In Hitler's Germany, nothing of this kind happened. This book recounts these final months, from the failed attempt to assassinate Hitler in July 1944 to German surrender in May 1945.
