Why the Germans lost World War Two? Help?

'How can the defeat of Nazi Germany in the Second World War best be explained?'

This is my topic question for a project at college.

I will be investigating areas such as:

Economy
Germany's Allies
Leadership
Supply lines
Bombing
Key Battles (Dunkirk, D-Day and Stalingrad)
Russia

I am looking for historians viewpoints on why Germany lost, primary and secondary sources, memoirs for instance and general information on these issues.

I am kind of stumped in terms of reading materials.

I would be highly gratefull if anyone could help.

 

You might want to get your hands on WHY THE ALLIES WON WORLD WAR 2 by R.J. Overy (ISBN: 0712674535 or 978-0712674539). There are numerous copies going cheap on Amazon.

 

Have ordered that book already Chuck! My issue is I need conflicting view points so I can anaylse them.

 

I just did a 6-page Research essay with my thesis being that 'Because Hitler was the military Commander-in-Chief, Germany lost World War II.'

Would you like me to send it to you??

However, be sure, that there is no ONE good explanation...

 

I would like to thank you all for your support. Any more information would also be greatly appriciated. I can get most books from my public libarary, or order them in. I will order Brute Force tommorow.

Regards,
