Beginning with the 1939 invasion of Poland and ending with Germany’s surrender in 1945, this book reviews all aspects of the war which resulted in the greatest devastation that Europe had ever seen.

With a concluding look at the Nuremberg Trials, Goldberg examines the trust cost to Europe, covering old controversies and new, unexplored events, objectively detailing exactly what happened to whom, when and where. For anyone wishing to know more about this conflict in one volume, from both sides, through a close examination of the key events, Europe in Flames is the ideal starting point.
