The Fall of Berlin par Anthony Read
Part of a 4 book set. Did not read this, but used as additional reference while reading Anthony Beevours book.
This is a four book set, hardcovers and is some pretty serious reading. I will cover the individual books in separate listings. This is stunning addition to any library. I had to upload the cover file.
Written by the same author as "The Deadly Embrace" this book describes Nazi Germany's night of terror, 9-10 November, 1938, the first progrom against the Jews. In a wave of destruction, Jewish shops were wrecked and looted, 30,000 Jews were arrested and at least 100 killed.
"This book is a riveting account of the end of the Raj, the most romantic of
all the great empires. The authors tell the epic story in compelling and
colorful detail from its beginnings more than a century earlier; their powerful
narrative takes a fresh look at many of the events and personalities involved,
especially the three charismatic giants - Gandhi, Nehru, and Jinnah - who
dominated the final, increasingly bitter thirty years. Meanwhile, a succession
of British politicians and viceroys veered wildly between liberalism and
repression until the Raj became a powder keg, wanting only a match." --back
