Beschreibung

In the last days of July 1943 British and American planes dropped 9 000 tons of bombs with the intention of erasing the German city from the map. The resultant firestorm burned for a month and left 40 000 civilians dead.

Inferno is a searing account of terrifying destruction: of how and why the Allies dropped a hail of high-explosive and incendiary bombs; of blizzards of sparks hurricane-force winds and 800-degree temperatures; of survivors cowering in basements or struggling along melting streets; of a city and its people near annihilated from above.

Inferno is an epic story of human devastation and survival against impossible odds.
