A portrait of evil. These three remarkable programmes, produced by Russian Television, reveal three of the most fascinating stories from Nazi Germany & the man who ruled it: Adolf Hitler. Failed Experiment: Live Broadcast for Hitler For the Third Reich, the newly invented television had every potential to be a powerful propaganda tool, but it also had unexpected consequences. During World War II, Germany gave birth to entertainment television, which did not align with the plans of Nazi leaders. Uncover hidden records of the secret meetings, directives & correspondences that attempted to control the burgeoning industry. Kill Hitler Probability theory supposes that if you toss a coin 100 times, chances for heads & tails are equal. However, none of about 50 attempts on Adolf Hitler's life were successful. The attempts began as early as 1922. Long before he took power, assassins fired on his car & planted a bomb where he was to make a speech. This programme delves into the archives to reveal the truth behind the many failed attempts to kill Hitler & examines how one of the world s deadliest men survived until he took his own life in 1945. Loving Hitler: The Fatal Flight of Hess The history of World War II is rife with unsolved mysteries. One of them was Rudolf Hess's flight to England in May of 1941. As a close associate of Hitler, there are no explanations for why Hess flew to the enemy nation. An even greater secret surrounds Hess's death, which for years was considered a suicide. Modern-day experts now offer shocking revelations & a radically different version of his sudden death. ...

It drove the soldiers to the brink, in which survival was a daily trial. ...

Ever wondered how the Nazis lost the war?  1944 was a year of trial for the German Army. While the Allies were preparing to invade the Third Reich from the west, Stalin was set on a massive offensive to liberate the last remaining areas of Soviet territory still held by the Germans. Hitler was determined to hold fast. His muddled strategic thinking nullified the undoubted operational ability of his generals, & disaster was the inevitable result. This book is a gripping analysis of the Soviet campaign to capture Byelorussia, the German attempts to counter it, & the final, terrible collapse of Army Group Centre, inflicting even greater losses on the Germans than their earlier defeat at Stalingrad. It was a catastrophe of unbelievable proportions: 28 of 34 divisions, over 300, 000 men, were lost. Hitler's war effort was doomed & broken.   Product Information:  •†ISBN:† 9781804361542 •†Author:†  Paul Adair •†Publisher:†  Canelo •†Format:†  Paperback •†Pages:† 288 •†Dimensions:† 13 x 19... ...
