Synopsis :

Here is a look at the private side of war, through graphic, first-hand accounts from all sides. Some of the pieces come from the heights of powers - Hitler's architect, Albert Speer, describing daily life at the Fuhrer's mountain hideaway; American journalist Sigrid Schultz's personal interviews with Hitler shortly before he killed himself. But many others emerge from raw notes scrawled by fighters in the heat of combat; from former prisoners-of-war trying to remember what they had tried so hard at the time to forget; from civilians under bombardment taking their lives into their hands by writing instead of escaping. This is the way the war was really waged - one human being at a time - and the impact of these 24 first-hand experiences brings the war home.
