Fire and Steel By Peter Caddick-Adams AudioBook Summary
Here is Peter Caddick-Adams’s third volume in his trilogy about the final year of the Western front in World War Two. Fire & Steel covers the war’s final 100 days—beginning in late January 1945 and continuing until May 8, 1945, when the German high command surrendered unconditionally to all Allied forces. Caddick-Adams’s previous two volumes in the acclaimed series—Sand & Steel, which covers the invasion of Normandy in June 1944, and Snow & Steel, the definitive study of the Battle of the Bulge—have set the stage for this concluding volume.
In these final months of World War Two, all of Germany is ablaze. In the west, the Allied progress was inexorable, with Eisenhower’s seven armies taking on Germany’s seven armies, town by town, bridge by bridge. With his customary narrative verve and utter mastery of the material, Caddick-Adams does these climactic final months full justice, from the capture of the Ludendorff Railway Bridge at Remagen, to the liberation of the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, to the taking of Munich on Hitler’s birthday, April 20, and through to VE Day. Fire & Steel ends with the return of prisoners, demobilization of servicemen, and the beginning of the occupation of Germany.
