Understanding the past 10 months of the Second World War

The End: The Defiance and Destruction of Hitler's Germany, 1944-1945 (Hardcover)

Customer Review

This book covers the last 10 months of World War II (European), the attack Von Stauffenberg July 1944 against Hitler, in May 1945, and focuses on what has enabled Germany to continue to function almost " normally "until the end of April 1945, while its major cities were reduced to piles of rubble.

We learn that officials were still receiving their wages normally until the end of April 1945, and the last concert of the Berliner Philharmoniker took place in mid-April 1945, three weeks before the end of the war, with the Russian army less than 100km from Berlin.

By its very sharp focus, this is a book for those who know the Second World War and want to "zoom in" on this aspect: why (and how) Nazi Germany she held so long?
