The author considers the question that there was no peace settlement in 1945: simply a division of Europe into two halves determined by military force. The Yalta and Potsdam conferences were recognitions of a fait accompli rather than agreements on the terms of peace. The book opens on the day of Hitler's suicide in Berlin where life existed in the ruins of the city as the Red army ferociously imposed its victorious will.
