Utrikeskorrespondenten Smith ger en mycket initierad rapport om läget i Tyskland de första krigsåren 1939-42 och åren som föregick dessa. If you wish to know what it was like to live in Nazi Germany before the War, here is Smith's first hand account. He was a newspaper correspondent in Germany in the period before the War. He describes the changes made to German society by Hitler's henchmen. The book was published in 1942 when the outcome of the War was still in doubt. The title comes from the his escape from Germany literally on the last train to make it to the border after Japan attacked Pearl Harbor and before Berlin declared war on the USA. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Distinctions
The memoirs of one of America's most distinguished correspondents--now with a new introduction and previously unpublished photos. Howard K. Smith worked as a young reporter in Berlin during Hitler's rise to power, and for the first two years of the Second World War. Finally granted a visa to leave the country--coincidentally on December 7th, 1941--he wrote everything censors had forbidden about the physical, emotional, and psychological manipulation of the German people by Hitler, Goebbels, and their lackeys. His personal experiences under difficult circumstances are extraordinary enough, but his descriptions of people forced to join the war, compulsory Nazi Youth groups, and of the German high command read like a chilling thriller.
