One wonders what the original German title was, as both the French (dans le bunker de Hitler) and English titles are mis-leading. Having read the anonymous diary "A Woman in Berlin" I expected something similar here. This is nothing as intimate so much as broad stokes that paint the history of the war as the author meets, works with, or becomes acquainted with other movers and shakers. It is an enjoyable read, but quickly done. What is most interesting is the fact that he was interviewed by a "Major Oughton" following the war. Major Oughton was the assumed name of Hough Trevor-Roper. ( ) sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
The last survivor of Hitler's bunker speaks for the first time The last survivor of the end days of Hitler's bunker tells his story publicly for the first time. Von Loringhoven was aide-de-camp to Hitler's last two chiefs of staff, Guderian and Krebs, and the link between the armies at the fronts and Hitler in his Berlin bunker. For the last nine months of the Third Reich he was present at the daily military briefings between Hitler and Marshals Keital and Goring, General Jodl and Admiral Donitz, along with Goebbels, Bormann, Ribbentrop, Himmler and Fegelein. Von Lorninghoven was witness to the ever-growing gap between the reality of reports outside the bunker and Hitler's misunderstanding of the calamity that was encircling the regime. As the Third Reich spiralled downwards, he watched and recorded Hitler's catastrophic strategic mistakes and the paralysis in which he held his generals. Hitler's reason was twisted by his need for vengeance after the assissination attempt; he was searching for an impossible theatrical victory from an empire in total ruin. The final week of the regime saw Loringhoven living wholly in the bunker, watching the deteriorating relations among the inmates, military and civilian, as the atmosphere poisoned to an inevitable end. When radio-telephone communications finally broke down on 29 April he escaped the bunker - amazingly with Hitler's blessing - crossed the Russian lines and was picked up and taken prisoner by the Americans. He was released in January 1948. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
