N2  - On 30 April 1945, Adolf Hitler committed suicide. The following day, his propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels also killed himself and the crumbling Third Reich passed to Admiral Karl Donitz. The Nazis' position seemed hopeless. Yet remarkably, the war in the rest of Europe went on for another ten days. 'After Hitler' looks at these days as a narrative day-by-day countdown but also as a broader global history of a European war that had seen some of the most savage battles in history
