Berlin, April 1945. After almost six years of war, the end is nigh for the Nazis. The Russians are closing in on the German capital and Hitler is holed up in the Führerbunker in the city. There was an eclectic mix of individuals residing in the bunker with Hitler at this time including senior Nazi officers, Hitlers personal protection squad, soldiers, civilians, children and even a female test pilot but how did they fair at the end? Not all died or were captured.
"Hitlers Last Days" studies Hitler's final days in the Führerbunker looking at the Nazi leaders' state of mind during the war and the effect it had on his physical state, despite only being 56 at the time of his death it was said by many that he looked somewhat older. But how did Hitler really die? Or did he escape as some evidence has previously suggested? A wealth of diverse research material has been used to create an account that comes from a different angle on a popular WWII story.
