Hitler's Last Days: An Eye-Witness Account (Military Classic)

By Gerhardt Boldt

In the last months of the Second World War, Gerhardt Boldt, a young cavalry officer serving on the Russian Front, found himself seconded to Gehlen's military intelligence staff in Berlin. Summoned to daily briefing session with the F hrer, his Generals and closest associates - in particular Bormann, Goering and Goebbels - Boldt has a unique opportunity of observing at close quarters the leading members of the Nazi hierarchy.

His description of the atmosphere, first in the semi-ruined Chancellery and then in the claustrophobic surroundings of the F hrerbunker, conveys a chilling impression of destruction - of the collapse of the entire Nazi system no less than the disintegration of its creator's personality. This book was written immediately after the war and expanded for this edition.
