Description

The Red Army's invasion of Berlin in January 1945 was among the most frightening types of sword and flame ever. Crazy by horrible recollections of Wehrmacht and SS violence, the Russians wreaked chaos, making thousands of civilians dead and millions more running westward. Drawing upon recently available materials from former Soviet documents, in addition to from German, American, British, French, and Swedish records, best-selling writer Antony Beevor clearly recounts the activities of the an incredible number of civilians and soldiers swept up in the nightmare of the 3Rd Reich's ultimate fall. Nov Berlin 1945 is just a heart-rending tale of pride, ignorance, fanaticism, revenge, and savagery, however it's also among amazing individual strength, self sacrifice, and success against all odds.
