| book description |
In Armageddon, one of Britain's most highly regarded historians tells the epic story of the bloody last eight months of the war in Europe. 'Hastings triumphs . . . he conveys brilliantly what fighting was like for those who had to do it' – David Stafford, The Times 'Masterly' – Craig Brown, Mail on Sunday In 1944 German forces suffered catastrophic defeats during the battles for Holland and the German border. Yet in the following weeks the ailing Wehrmacht was able to achieve one of the greatest military feats of the Second World War. The Germans regrouped and found the strength to halt the seemingly inexorable Allied advance, prolonging the war into 1945. Drawing on original research and fascinating individual experiences, Max Hastings's definitive account provides a fresh and gripping insight into the final twists and turns of the war, revealing how Europe's fate hung in the balance until the bitter end. 'Magisterial . . . Armageddon is a magnificent achievement' – Christopher Silvester, Financial Times
