Discover a compelling historical account in 'Last Train to Berlin' by Hans Peter Marland. This powerful memoir details the experiences of a German POW captured by the Soviets at the end of World War II, his time in forced-labour camps, and his delayed return home. Written with a blend of humor and dry intelligence, the author recounts his journey, even being lauded as an 'exemplary hero-worker of the USSR'. This first edition paperback, published in 1995 by Minerva Press, offers a unique perspective on the aftermath of the war and the early Cold War era. Featuring illustrations and an inscription by the author, it's a significant addition for collectors of military history and memoirs. Printed in Great Britain.
