As the final month of fighting in Europe in 1945 dawned the Allies
embarked upon a series of mopping up operations, destroying the
last centres of German resistance as the essentially defeated
Wehrmacht fought on in increasingly desperate conditions, driven on
by the explicit no surrender order issued by Hitler. Yet at the
same time, the Allied alliance was already on shaky ground, as
German resistance was crushed the Allies began to eye each other
nervously across a battletorn Europe, with the politically driven
military decisions to have a huge impact on the future of the
continent. This book traces the final operations of the war, from
the liberation of Denmark, the Allied drive towards the Baltic
straits, incursions in Yugoslavia, Hungary, Czechoslovakia and
engagements in Eastern and Western Germany, whilst also analyzing
how the Allied strategies in the final days of the war were a hint
of the future difficulties that would drive the Cold War.
