Octavo, red cloth (hardcover), viii, 352 pp. Fine in a Near Fine, mylar protected dust jacket with light rubbing to edges. From dust jacket: Captured within the pages of this moving account of the last days of the German Third Reich are the sights and sounds of the German war machine as seen through the eyes of the author, at that time a teenage member of Hitler's Youth and later a pilot with the German Luftwaffe. Such an "insider's" point of view holds deep intrigue, excitement, and historical reference for a time in the world's history when families and lands were divided and lost, and where, within Germany itself, no future could be conceived unless Germany was at the helm. The shocking reality of those who survived the tyranny was, in a way, indicative of the way the rest of the world was feeling. World War II provided a dark cloud of anger over our planet, and from this author's true account of his experiences within Germany at that time, there was much anger there as well. Far from the totally unified front German propaganda would have had the world believe, many inside Germany were disgusted, but held their tongues for fear of reprisals. In this environment, as the author intimates, "A boy became a man in the face of death, living every day of his life as if it were his last. When love and hope stole its way into his heart, he became a death-defying fighter against the monstrous political oraganism that held Germany in its claws."
