1945 The War That Never Ended

This is a masterpiece of historical writing, a book that compels its readers to reflect anew on the shaping forces of history. Beginning with the siege of Berlin,1945provides rich insight into the conflicts, motives, and counter-motives that marked the end of World War II and established the lasting patterns of deceit, uncertainty, and distrust that defined the Cold War. "Superbly sensitive to the ground-level tragedy and the high-level politics of 1944-45, the readably fluent Dallas proves integral to understanding both what is known and unknown about the cataclysmic conclusion of the Second World War."--Booklist(starred review) "One comes away from reading Gregor Dallas's eloquent book with a profound sense of the war's futility, wastefulness, and unintended consequences."--James J.
