Summary
The Nazi Götterdamerung of late April 1945 has never been more forensically examined than in this definitive collection of documents from the KGB's own archives. The eerie atmosphere in the Berlin Reichschancellery at the time of the suicide of Adolf Hitler has long fascinated historians and laymen alike; now there is a single source book that brings together every imaginable aspect of that defining moment in the history of the modern world. The authors - V.K. Vinogradov, J.F. Pogonyi and N.V. Teptzov - deserve high commendation for placing the entire record in the public domain in this very scholarly andaccessible way
