THE MEN WHO TRIED TO KILL HITLER
by Roger Manvell and Heinrich Fraenkel

Many people will be familiar with the ill-fated bomb plot in Nazi Germany on 20 July, 1944, where von Stauffenberg left his briefcase containing the time-bomb, in the Fuhrer's secret headquarters in the forests of East Prussia. Few readers would be fully aware of the various strands of the German resistance that were woven together in the conspiracy and the disastrous lack of liaison between the organisers. The full dramatic details of the conspiracy and the subsequent events in Berlin and Paris are set down in this comprehensive history, drawn from primary documents including Gestapo interrogation records.

IN THE SEWERS OF LVOV: THE LAST SANCTUARY FROM THE HOLOCAUST
by Robert Marshall

As the Nazis began the destruction of their friends and relatives in the ghetto in the Polish city of Lvov, a small group of Jews escaped into the grim network of sewer tunnels. They lived there for fourteen months with the city's waste, the sudden floods that washed some of them away, the fumes and the damp, the rats, and the darkness. Their only support was a sewer worker, an ex-criminal who constantly threatened to leave them if they ran out of money. Many died; some of cyanide in mass suicide, some of falling into the rushing waters of the river, some simply of exhaustion. When the Russians liberated Lvov, they emerged from the sewers filthy, bent double, emaciated and unrecognizable

HITLER'S EMPIRE: HOW THE NAZIS RULED EUROPE
by Mark Mazower

Hitler’s empire was the largest, most brutal and most ambitious reshaping of Europe in history. Inspired by the imperial legacy of those such as the British, the Third Reich cast its shadow from the Channel Islands to the Caucasus and ruled hundreds of millions. Yet it was an empire built on an illusion. From Hitler’s plans for vast motorways crossing an ethnically cleansed Russian steppe, to dreams of a German super-economy rivalling America’s, the author reveals the lethal fusion of mass murder, modern managerialism and colossal incompetence that underpinned the Nazi New Order.
