Hitler's Last Day: The Final Hours of the Führer Book

With an inimitable cast of rancid characters, from Hitler himself to Eva Braun, Himmler (who pleaded with Hitler to leave the doomed city and then went off to negotiate surrender with the Allies), Goebbels, his wife Magda and their six children, Martin Bormann and many other inner-circle Nazis, this book captures the pressure-cooker atmosphere in the bunker as the Red Army advanced on Berlin and Hitler finally ran into the immovable object that was historical reality.
