Synopsis

The 100th title in the Fortress series, this book describes and examines the Führerhauptquartiere – the 14 or so headquarters built for Hitler.

This guide covers all of the essential locations and how they were used to direct the Nazi war apparatus, including the subterranean Führerbunker complex in Berlin where Hitler committed suicide, the infamous Wolfsschanze (Wolfs Lair) in East Prussia, and the Eagles Nest in Bavaria.

With a map showing the locations of all of Hitlers bunkers and fortifications on the eastern and western fronts and illustrated with photographs and specially commissioned artwork, this book is an essential introduction to Hitlers command structures and recreates numerous bunkers and buildings which were destroyed by Allied bombing raids or by fleeing German troops.
