Final Entries 1945 - The Diaries Of Joseph Goebbels
Edited by Hugh Trevor-Roper
Published by G.P. Putnam's Sons: New York 1978 1st US Edition

"Final Entries 1945: The Diaries of Joseph Goebbels, edited by Hugh Trevor-Roper and published by G.P. Putnam's Sons in 1978, presents the last, haunting months of Nazi Germany as recorded by one of its chief propagandists. These diary entries, written from January to April 1945, capture Goebbels' fanatical loyalty to Adolf Hitler, his unyielding belief in Nazi ideology, and his delusional attempts to maintain faith in ultimate victory even as the Third Reich crumbled around him. The entries reveal an intimate and chilling portrait of a man consumed by ideological fervor, alternately despairing and defiant as Berlin falls under Allied assault. Through his own words, Goebbels emerges not as a detached bureaucrat but as a deeply complicit believer, steadfastly devoted to Hitler until the very end.

Trevor-Roper's introduction and annotations place the diaries within the broader context of the Nazi collapse, providing critical commentary on Goebbels' mindset and the regime's moral and psychological disintegration. The editor contrasts Goebbels' self-justifying prose with the stark reality of Germany's destruction and the suffering it caused. The result is a work that is both historically invaluable and profoundly unsettling — a firsthand account of fanaticism, denial, and moral blindness written in the shadow of imminent defeat. Final Entries 1945 serves as a grim testament to the ideological zeal that fueled the Nazi leadership to the bitter end, and as a crucial document in understanding how delusion and devotion can persist even as catastrophe becomes unavoidable."
