On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the capture of Berlin in the last days of World War II, this large format full color book is a stunning presentation of more that 500 photographs and maps, some of which are contemporary color shots and many of which have never before been published. The battles for the Reichs Chancellery, The Leibstandarte, the air war over Berlin, the unstoppable steamroller from the East in the form of the Red Army and the almost apocalyptic battles of the last days of Berlin are all covered here. The book also serves as an excellent guide to the historic city.
