Customer Reviews of End of A Berlin Diary
Decent Companion to BERLIN DIARY Six years after the author's BERLIN DIARY led the 1941 bestseller lists, Shirer, a correspondent in Nazi Germany from 1934-1940, published this postwar account of returning to Europe in 1944 and Allied-occupied Berlin in 1945. Highlights include Winston Churchill's surprise wartime appearance in newly-liberated Paris, and Shirer's chance meeting with a Russian soldier who'd read the author's translated diary in the trenches near Stalingrad. A low point was the griping and lack of remorse on the part of the beaten Germans. The author includes many (perhaps too many) captured Nazi documents relating to the war and Nazi atrocities - documents that Shirer later used in his superb RISE AND FALL OF THE THIRD REICH published in 1960. This book doesn't have the bite and tension of it's predecessor - Shirer only wrote this later edition because CBS fired him and he needed money - but it's a highly readable companion.
Still some of the best
This and Shirer's A Berlin Diary are still some of the best books around for anyone interested in the history of WWII.
