Saksamaa 1945. Sõjast rahuaega - Richard Bessel

In early 1945, Germany experienced an outbreak of violence the likes of which the world had never seen. In January 1945 alone, nearly a million people died violent deaths. By the end of the Second World War, millions had been killed, millions had lost their families, homes and health; cities had been reduced to rubble, bodies were strewn everywhere. Despite this, people had to move on with their lives and build a new world under the most adverse conditions. This is the story of Germany in 1945, the story of life after death – of how Germany emerged from the greatest catastrophe in modern history.
The author of the book, Richard Bessel, is Professor of 21st Century History at the University of York.
