One of the best books I've ever read is "Hellstorm: The Death of Nazi Germany, 1944 to 1947." It tells how badly the Germans suffered during those years. It was literally "hell on earth." Of course what Nazi Germany had done to millions and millions of others including the murder of 7 million Jews, they probably deserved what happened to them. In any event, as usual the totally innocent women and children living in Nazi Germany suffered the most.
After reading through a lot of pages already I've noticed that the Nazi murder of 7 million Jews is not even mentioned. That seems like a strange omission.
Here is a sample:
"Here, in the heart of old Dresden, temperatures reached upwards of 3,000 degrees.65 Metal roofs, copper cupolas, glass, even sandstone, liquefied in the furious heat and poured down like lava. A hurricane of smoke, flame and dust roared toward the vortex from all directions as the cold air beyond Dresden was drawn in by the fire ball. Many disoriented victims, especially the thousands of refugees, took wrong turns on strange streets and were swept like feathers into the furnace."
