Victory '45 : the end of the war in eight surrenders

Holland, James, 1970-2026
Books, Manuscripts
From the Italian Alps to northern Germany, to London, New York Washington and Tokyo, 'Victory '45' tells the story of the extraordinary summer when the greatest conflagration the world had ever known finally came to an end after six surrenders that heralded the Allied victory. Comprised of eight chapters based around each of those surrenders and the victory celebrations which followed, it is rich in character and human drama with revealing stories and perspectives behind the end of the war not yet told before. Each chapter follows the viewpoints of a number of key characters as they traverse these world-changing events - from ordinary servicemen and women and civilians to generals and political leaders.
