Summary:
Bestselling historian Andrew Nagorski takes a fresh go through the decisive year 1941, when Hitler’s miscalculations and policy of terror propelled Churchill, FDR, and Stalin into a powerful fresh alliance that defeated Nazi Germany.
In early 1941, Hitler’s armies ruled most of Europe. Churchill’s Britain was an isolated holdout against the Nazi tide, but German bombers had been attacking its towns and German U-boats were attacking its ships. Stalin was watching the terms of the Nazi-Soviet Pact, about The 1941: THE ENTIRE YEAR Germany Shed the Battle and Roosevelt was vowing to keep the United States out of the war. Hitler was confident that his goal of total victory was at your fingertips.
By the end of 1941, everything changed. Hitler experienced repeatedly gambled on escalation and lost: by invading the Soviet Union and committing a series of disastrous military services blunders; by making mass murder and terror his weapons of preference, and by hurrying to declare war on america after Japan’s assault on Pearl Harbor. Britain emerged with two effective brand-new allies—Russia and america. By then, Germany was doomed to beat.
Nagorski illuminates the activities of the major characters of this pivotal 12 months as nothing you’ve seen prior. 1941: The Year Germany Lost the War is definitely a stunning study of unbridled megalomania versus established leadership. It also reveals how 1941 established the Holocaust in motion, and presaged the postwar department of European countries, triggering the Chilly War. 1941 was a 12 months that forever described our world.
