With Our Backs to Berlin Hardcover – Illustrated, 22
Mar. 2001
An account of the final months of World War II when the
German Army was in full retreat on both its Western and Eastern Fronts -
British and American troops were poised to cross the Rhine in the West, while
in the East, the Soviet war machine was steam-rolling German soldiers back
towards Berlin.
Based upon interviews with a wide-range of former German
Army and SS soldiers, these unique personal episodes vividly depict the
extraordinary circumstances of the Third Reich's final days as armies closed in
from all sides. Le Tissier's interviews link the brutality of combat with
the humanity of the desperate battles.
