This colorful post-World War II history brings to life a crucial yet understudied period, through the eyes of both major figures and ordinary people.
It was a summer like no one had ever experienced: in the four months from May to September 1945, the old world collapsed, and a new one opened up. The heinous Third Reich was over, ushering in an era of freedom, but also fresh conflicts.
With a gripping historical panorama, Oliver Hilmes offers insight into this unprecedented summer, from the perspectives of the victors and the vanquished, victims and perpetrators, celebrities and unknowns. The "Big Three"--Harry S. Truman, Winston Churchill, and Joseph Stalin--determine the course of history at the Potsdam Conference. German housewife Else Tietze fears for her son's safety.
