Here is Peter Caddick-Adams’ 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 8th, 1945, when the German high command surrendered unconditionally to all Allied forces. Caddick-Adams’ 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, the German’s final offensive in the war-have set the stage for this concluding volume.
