Very good Hardcover. 1st Edition. 1951. First edition. Recounts the author's personal experiences as a soldier in the Waffen SS on the Eastern Front during World War II . Originally published in German in 1947 under the title Grosse rausch, the English translation by Paul Findlay was released in 1951, bringing Kern's account to a wider audience Kern, born Erich Knud Kernmayr in 1906, was a far right Austrian journalist and Nazi Party press officer before joining the Waffen SS. His frontline service spanned multiple elite units, including the 1st SS Panzer Division "Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler," the Wiking Division, the 15th SS Division at Narwa, and the 500th SS Parachute Battalion. The book details his combat experiences, from early 1941 through to the end of the war, offering a soldier's perspective on the brutal conditions, political directives, and ideological fervor of the Eastern Front. His memoir is framed as a loyal Nazi account, and it is notable for its critical reflections on Nazi policy in the Soviet Union. He expressed disillusionment with the rigid application of racial ideology, the neglect of Ukrainian volunteers, and the mismanagement of Soviet agricultural collectives, which he believed undermined the German war effort His wartime motivation blended anti communism, religious conviction, and personal loyalty to Hitler, but the text also reveals a soldier's pragmatic awareness of the campaign's challenges. ealities of combat, survival, and the ideological battles fought both on and off the battlefield.A personal war memoir and a contested historical document-a rare insider's view of the Waffen SS from the Eastern Front, offering raw frontline details alongside ideological and strategic critiques that complicate its reception. dust jacket shows chipping at head and tail of spine (1/2 inch), dj has 1/2 inch closed end tear on top of front; dj also shows tanning at edges; book itself shows foxing of Foredges and endpapers very light foxing throughout the text; as well as slight age tanning; Otherwise, text clean and binding tight; images available upon request; dj encased in Brodart protective book cover; first owner's name inscribed on front flyleaf; second owner's library stamp on FFEP; images available Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall.
