" By early 1945, the destruction of the German Nazi State seems certain. The Allied forces, led by American generals George S. Patton and Dwight D. Eisenhower, are gaining control of Europe, leaving German leaders scrambling. Facing defeat, Adolf Hitler flees to a secret bunker with his new wife, Eva Braun, and his beloved dog, Blondi. It is there that all three would meet their end, thus ending the Third Reich and one of the darkest chapters of history. Hitler's Last Days is a gripping account of the death of one of the most reviled villains of the 20th century-a man whose regime of murder and terror haunts the world even today.

Germany's World War II U-boat fleet was a truly elite fighting force.The U-Bootwaffe represented the cream of Germany's naval personnel,and in technology,training,tactics and combat success, the German fleet was far superior to that of any other combatant nation.Few members of any elite formation in WW2 sacrificed so many of their number in battle as the members of the German U-Bootwaffe.Estimates of losses vary between 75 and 80 percent. This book tells the complete U-boat story.The wartime development of the U-boat is traced from the Type 1 through to the Type XXIII,and the experiences of typical U-boat crewmen are brought to life.Operational tactics are examined,and the massive bunkers that housed the U-boat fleets are described and illustrated.
