Introduction
A vivid account of a year regarded as one of history’s most fateful, as the escalated global conflict drew to a tragic close.


Outline
The horrors of the death camps are exposed to the world with prisoners’ liberation by the Allies; the loss of human lives in the forced marches, and in the flight in the east from the Russian steamroller is enormous. Political manoeuvring among the Big Three began in earnest as they sought to segregate Europe’s nationalities; the division of Germany into occupied zones is determined, but the fates of other nations are determined by the momentum of the Soviet’s drive to the west.
