Features: World War II can be called the most bloody war in world history—it was a madness of violence and destruction, a madness that originated from Germany and returned to Germany through the bombing. There is no doubt that the atrocities of the Nazis led to the escalation of the second total war. The bombing by the Allies was only indirectly related to them: for them, bombing was undoubtedly a suitable method to stop the perpetrators of the Holocaust and their war machine. Diverse works of reflective literature and countless fragmented descriptions of the bombing of a particular city or region often narrow people's perspective, and these literary works and fragmented descriptions are also very prone to becoming one-sided political evaluations, and are often tinged with personal emotions. Professional historical research literature is often difficult to reach a large readership. Now, even in those meticulously produced television series, one can only see a general narrative, and the content is mainly presented through images and visuals. This book will provide a detailed presentation and explanation; it will give readers the opportunity to combine memories of the bombing with conclusions from historical research.
