This is the story of the Third Reich at war, from the early blitzkriegs through Eastern Europe and the Low Countries to the final days of reckoning in a shattered Berlin. There is coverage, with maps, of all the Wehrmacht's major battles and campaigns of World War II, among them Barbarossa, Stalingrad, North Africa, the Battle of the Bulge, the bitter fighting for Italy, Greece and the Mediterranean, and the final retreat to Berlin. It covers: the war in the air, from the Battle of Britain through to the V1 and V2 rockets; the war at sea, and the initial, and devastating, effectiveness of the U-boat packs; portraits of the Third Reich's leaders, generals and men of influence; items on the Third Reich's weaponry, fighting tactics and strategy; the daily life of the ordinary German soldier, sailor or airman; and special coverage of the SS - Hitler's genocidal super-soldiers - and of the Third Reich's special forces units.
