Six key Second World War conflicts where decisions of the Nazi dictator Adolf Hitler contributed to his eventual downfall. Each theatre of operations written up by a German general who was on the spot & involved in carrying out the uncompromising orders of the Fuhrer. This is an 'other side of the hill' collection of accounts which gives valuable insight into the machinations of a sycophantic hierarchy immediately surrounding Hitler. Instead had the dictator paid heed to his highly competent commanders rather than his toadies the outcome would have been very different for every one of us. Happily for the world he thought he knew best selecting counsellors closest to his uncompromising heart.1. Battle of Britain is told by Werner Kreipe Chief Operations Officer Third Air Fleet December 1939
- June 1940.2. Battle for Moscow Gunther Blumentritt Chief of Staff in 1940. Later Chief of Staff of Army Group D. In 1944 he command of 12th SS Korps & in 1945 Commander of First Parachute Army.3. Battle of Alamein Fritz Bayerlein 1941 Chief of Staff Afrika Korps. Commander of 3rd Panzer Division & finally Panzer Lehr in 1944.4. Battle of Stalingrad Kurt Zeitzler Chief of Staff XXII Korps 1940 to 1941; Chief of Staff Army Group D April 1942; Chief of the Army General Staff 1942 to July 1944.5.

During the war Westphal served as Operations Officer under General Erwin Rommel in North Africa Chief of Staff under General Albrecht Kesselring in Italy & Chief of Staff to General Gerd von Rundstedt in 1944-45 therefore admirably qualified to draw the accounts of his once fellow serving officers together to give a vivid picture of military life under arguably the most vicious dictator the world has ever known.
