The Last Year Of The German Army: May 1944- May 1945 (2023) By James Lucas
 
Charting the "progress" of the German army from May 1944 to May 1945, this work outlines the structure and organization of Hitler's troops, the growing opposition to the Führer, and the eventual mistrust of his senior commanders. The book concludes with accounts of the last battles of the war.
 
By the summer of 1944, Germany faced a desperate crisis. The Allied landings opened a new front, straining an army already locked in a brutal struggle on the Eastern Front. The failed July bomb plot deepened Hitler’s paranoia and distrust of his own commanders.
 
In this gripping study, James Lucas analyzes the German army’s evolving structure and weaponry during its final year. He uncovers the surprising and often desperate measures taken to confront a reality Hitler refused to acknowledge.
 
From D-Day through the Battle of the Bulge and culminating in the Fall of Berlin, this book examines the final battles of a German army that, despite overwhelming odds, never truly surrendered as the Allies advanced across Europe. It chronicles the unique and harrowing experiences of a military force’s descent from dominance to ultimate defeat.
