This Is Berlin. A Narrative History: 1938-40

"This is Berlin" gathers together the previously unpublished, extraordinary broadcasts and writings from Berlin of William Shirer, the acclaimed American journalist whose The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich quickly became, and still remains, the standard work on Nazi Germany. Here is a vivid, compelling and urgent narrative, one of the great first-hand documents of the Second World War. All through the campaigns - from the Anschluss to the fall of France, Dunkirk and the Battle of Britain - Shirer proved himself a master chronicler as he offered the world a unique and dramatic by-line on history as it happened inside Hitler's Germany.
