About This Item
London: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, 2005. New book, 584 pages. At 9.51 pm on Tuesday 13 February 1945, Dresden's air-raid sirens sounded as they had done many times druing the Second World War, but this time was different. By the next morning, 4,500 tons of high explosive and incendiary devices had been dropped on the unprotected city. At least 25,000 inhabitants died in the terrifying firestorm and thirteen square miles of the city's historic centre, including treasures and art work, lay in ruins. In this portrait of the city, its people, and its still controversial destruction, Frederick Taylor has drawn on archives and sources only accessible since the fall of the East German regime and talked to aircrew and survivors, from members of the German armed services and refugees fleeing the Russian advance to ordinary citizens of Dresden.. Soft Cover. As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.
