Description

Ian Kershaw's book, "The End", offers an iconic account of the final months of Nazi Germany, revealing the fear and fanaticism that led a country to destruction. In every major war, there often emerges a point where defeat is apparent and leaders attempt to negotiate with the victors to save their lives. However, in Nazi Germany, this did not happen. The regime had to be eradicated city by city with an almost unprecedented degree of brutality.

What were the reasons that kept Germany in the war? Why did its leaders not attempt to save their lives? And why did ordinary people continue to obey the Führer's suicidal orders, with countless Germans executing their compatriots for the crime of absence or panic?

"The End" is described as a "detailed and complex work", offering the best effort to answer the difficult question of why Nazi Germany continued to fight towards complete self-destruction.
