\n A GRIPPING ACCOUNT OF THE LAST DAYS OF WORLD WAR II FROM THE FAMOUS FACES WHO WITNESSED IT.<\/p>\n

\u2018Riveting.\u2019 Daily Mail<\/p>\n

\u2018Fascinating.\u2019 The Times<\/p>\n

\u2018Beguiling . . . a good story well told.\u2019 BBC History Magazine<\/p>\n

On 28 April 1945, Benito Mussolini was dragged from his mistress\u2019s bed and executed. Two days later, as the Soviet Army surrounded Berlin, Adolf Hitler put a gun to his head.<\/p>\n

But this is not the traditional account of victory in Europe.<\/p>\n

Drawing on first-hand accounts from individuals including John F. Kennedy, working in San Francisco, and Bob Dole recuperating in an Italian hospital, Nicholas Best provides a unique insight into ordinary American lives.<\/p>\n

He recounts how Spike Milligan swigged stolen champagne. Audrey Hepburn starved in Holland. And a future Pope walked home, terrified of being shot for deserting the Wehrmacht.<\/p>\n

Told by individuals, some of whom would go on to be the most recognised faces on the planet, Five Days that Shocked the World gives a remarkable insight into the most dramatic 120 hours in history.<\/p>\n

PRAISE FOR FIVE DAYS THAT SHOCKED THE WORLD:<\/p>\n

\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50 \u2018I found it utterly engrossing . . . one can almost taste the dust of crumbling Berlin.\u2019 Don B.<\/p>\n

\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50 \u2018A really unusual and original way to view a series of historical events that most know well from school.\u2019 Kindler<\/p>\n

\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50 \u2018Nicholas Best has succeeded in putting together a riveting page turner . . . if you know nothing about WWII this is as good a place to start as any.\u2019 Amazon Customer<\/p>\n

\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50 \u2018A book hard to put down, it filled many of the gaps left by history.\u2019 David N.<\/p>\n

\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50\u2b50 \u2018I have read many accounts of the final days of World War 2 . . . none have been so carefully put together and presented in such an easy way for the reader to absorb.\u2019 Mike
