Europe At War 1939-1945\Europa im Krieg 1939 - 1945, englische Ausgabe\Die große Katastrophe, englische Ausgabe
The conventional narrative of the Second World War is well known:
after six years of brutal fighting on land, sea and in the air, the
Allied Powers prevailed and the Nazi regime was defeated. But as in
so many things, the truth is somewhat different. Bringing a fresh
eye to bear on a story we think we know, Norman Davies forces us to
look again at those six years and to discard the usual narrative of
Allied good versus Nazi evil, reminding us that the war in Europe
was dominated by two evil monsters - Hitler and Stalin - whose
fight for supremacy consumed the best people in Germany and in the
USSR. The outcome of the war was at best ambiguous, the victory of
the West was only partial, its moral reputation severely tarnished
and, for the greater part of the continent of Europe,
'liberation' was only the beginning of more than fifty
years of totalitarian oppression. 'Davies writes with real
knowledge and passion.' - Michael Burleigh, "Evening
Standard". 'Punchy and compelling' - Noel Malcolm,
"Sunday Telegraph".
