The Führer Bunker

Viac o knihe

Is it permissible to create a book about the Führer bunker? Not only is it permissible, it is necessary. The fascination with the bunker and the final days of Hitler remains unbroken. Visitors to Berlin continually seek remnants of this historical site, but there is little to see. Many inquire about the bunker in bookstores, often those who do not align with Nazi ideology. Americans and English speakers tend to ask more openly, while Germans often do so discreetly. This book details the location of the bunker and what stands in its place today. It explains the construction history of the concrete cavern, recounts the drama of the final weeks through eyewitness accounts, and discusses efforts to demolish the bunker. Photographs and detailed plans illustrate the bunker’s location and life within it. History journalist Sven Felix Kellerhoff has studied National Socialism for years, compiling key sources and facts about the history of the Führer bunker from its construction in 1935 to the present day.
