End : Hitler's Germany 1944-45
Paperback Edition: 1/2012
This title has been nominated for "Sunday Times", "TLS", "Spectator", "Sunday Telegraph", "Daily Mail" and "Scotland On Sunday" Books of The Year. In almost every major war there comes a point where defeat looms for one side and its rulers cut a deal with the

Kershaw's gripping, revelatory book recounts these final months, from the failed attempt to assassinate Hitler in July 1944 to the German surrender in May 1945.
