Dresden: Tuesday February 13, 1945 Book Summary and Study Guide

Detailed plot synopsis reviews of Dresden: Tuesday February 13, 1945


Frederick Taylor re-examines the events leading up to the notorious fire bombing of Dresden during WWII and demonstrates that despite enormous destruction especially of the old city, many of the previous accounts of the allied attack exaggerated the numbers killed and embroidered the facts. The book includes a history of the city and many first hand accounts from people who went through the actual bombing.
