This Is Berlin: Reporting from Nazi Germany 1938-40

William Shirer, the acclaimed journalist whose "The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich" quickly became, and still remains, the standard work on Nazi Germany, was a masterful chronicler of the events in Europe that led up to World War II. ""This is Berlin"" gathers together two-and-a-half years worth of his daily CBS radio broadcasts that described the menacing steps Germany took toward World War II, just as America and the world heard them. Here is a vivid, compelling, and urgent narrative, one of the great first-hand documents of the Second World War.
