Description: | Select Guide Rating Tracing the final operations of the war, this title analyses how the Allied strategies in the final days of the war were a hint of the future suspicion that would drive the Cold War. As the final month of fighting in Europe in 1945 dawned, the Allies embarked upon a series of mopping-up operations, destroying the last centers of German resistance as the essentially defeated Wehrmacht fought on in increasingly desperate conditions, driven by the explicit no-surrender order issued by Hitler. |
