"The best of five exemplary works of history is Antony Beevor's Berlin: The Downfall 1945. The story has been told many times, but Beevor brings a distinctive combination of gifts to it. Not merely is he a lucid chronicler of military tactics, strategy and maneuvers, but he had a sympathetic eye for ordinary people who became war's innocent vicrtims - in this case the uncountable thousands of women who were raped and brutalized by the Red Army as it raced to the prize that was Belin." - Jonathan Yardly, Washington Post Includes an Index.
