On approximately 180 pages is documented by unique and previously unprecedented pictorial material, the struggle of the German armies around the Reichsgrenze. The approximately 180 black / white photos are exclusively German shots and not allied post-war photographs. The recordings were made mostly by German soldiers during the final bouts and thus represent unique picture documents from a time when hardly any film material was available and only rarely photographed. The black / white photos are supplemented by three rare color photographs, which also emerged during the fighting. The picture material, which is complemented by extensive and detailed texts and maps, is printed in the best possible quality on high-quality art print paper.
