Anton Joachimsthaler
The Last Days of Hitler. The Legends - The Evidence - The Truth.
London England: Arms and Armour Press 1998. Why should so many words have been devoted to Adolf Hitler's last moments when they had little consequence relative to the preceding years The answer surrounds the words contained in the subtitle of this book: that the final weeks of his life saw Hitler in a deteriorating mental state physical ill-health and liable to fits of gross irrationality and that these conditions served to shroud his demise in controvery and myth. The author has delved into unprecedented depths of research and investigating to achieve a defining story of the events of April 1945. He is able to discount many false theories strengthen certain assumptions and establish an account that can dispel the doubts. He assess the views of witnesses but makes no use of hearsay evidence. He takes into consideration the different concerns that may have influenced the reports of German Russian and Allied personnel who were close to the bunker before or just after Hitler's death and notes the secrecy and deviousness which has protected evidence for over half a century.

John Ray
The Second World War : A Narrative History
London England: Cassell P L C 2000. As the events of 1939-1945 fade from living memory and the Second World War recedes into the history books new generations of readers seek answers to old questions. How did there come to be such a war at all so soon after the Great War Were the participant nations seeking conflict or did they have it thrust upon them What actually happened in that war to cause the deaths of some fifty million men women and children In his new book John Ray first examines the social political and military background of the inter-war years. He then traces the progress of the conflict across all campaigns and theatres of war. At each point he explains how the leaders took the course of action they did for good or bad and the consequent effects on the future conduct of the war. He makes very clear the distinction between planning for war and the real thing; we see how often indecision incidents and accidents unexpectedly come to win or lose a battle. This is history made real and exciting in a concise fast-moving and always fascinating approach of particular value to newcomers to the subject. The Second World War shaped the second half of the twentieth century; our grasp of the world we now live in is incomplete without an understanding of how and why that war was conducted. This book explains the Second World War. Illustrated with B/W photographs. Crease on back cover. Reprint. Softcover. Very Good. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Softback. Cassell P L C Paperback
