Condizione: New. Hardback 202 pages Dimensions : 17.78 x 24.13 cmPublished Price £10.99 In February 1943, the heavy water plant in Vermork/Rjukan, that Hitler needed for the making of the atomic bomb, was made useless by a combined British/Norwegian sabotage operation. This operation became a legend in history. What is less well known is the fact that there was an earlier attempt at sabotaging the plant in late 1942. This failed attempt is known in history as Operation Freshman. This book is about the successful operation, but it is also a book describing the failed one: both what happened before the operation, and during the operation as well as the aftermath. It describes the planning, the German response and the horrible way the German forces treated the British Commandos involved in Operation Freshman. Some were tortured by the Gestapo and later killed by Stabsarzt Werner Fritz Seeling who injected air into their blood streams, some interrogated and executed within a few hours of their capture at the German barracks at Bekkebà . They were taken into nearby woods and shot one by one, each being forced to listen to the man before him being executed. All of the executions were conducted in accordance with the Commando Order issued by the Wehrmacht High Command in October 1942, which stated that all Allied commando troops were to be killed immediately upon capture. The local Norwegian population were unable to prevent the prisoners being executed, but tended the graves of the dead until the end of the war.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Condizione: New. Hardback 254 pages Dimensions 20.32x26.19 cmPublished Price £25.99 Norway was one of the nations producing the highest number of volunteers for the German war machine during World War II. Most of them ended up in the mechanized units belonging to the famous Waffen SS units Wiking and Nordland, but a number of them etched their place in the history books as members of the elitist subdivisional units of the SS Division Nord, fighting above the Polar Circle during the war. Among these units were the Ski Infantry Battalion-the SS-Schijager Batallion Norge. This is their story.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title. Book.…

Condizione: New. Hardback 480 pagesPublished Price £30 The book begins with a study of the atrocities, organised by location. This is the heart of the book, looking at what was done and the evidence for it, organised by location. This includes every claim made against the Waffen-SS, and dismisses a number due to a lack of evidence (or flawed evidence). As the accompanying maps demonstrate, these crimes were spread across every theatre in which the Waffen-SS serviced, starting in Poland in 1939, and spreading to Western Europe in 1940 and 1944-45, the Balkans, and most notoriously the Eastern Front.The second part covers each unit within the SS, starting with the divisions and working down to smaller units, including the notorious Einstazgruppen. This section helps to demolish one of the favourite arguments of the various apologists and defenders of the Waffen-SS, who often claim that the 'classic' divisions, manned by German citizens, were simply fighting units, and try and shift the blame for the war crimes onto those units recruited outside Germany. Although some of these international units did indeed commit many atrocities, the 'classic' divisions were by far the worst, committing two thirds of the proven crimes.Third comes a biographical dictionary, listing those SS officers most directly linked to war crimes, from individual criminals to division commanders.Chapters: Atrocities, Units and Organisations, Individuals, Conclusions, AppendicesA: Table of Corresponding Ranks B: Glossary C: The Nuremberg Principles (1946) D: Atrocity StatisticsFinally there is an examination of the issues raised by this litany of atrocities, including post-war war crime trials, the motives and methods of the various defenders of the Waffen-SS (split into 'revisionists', apologists' and 'propagandists'), and the possible causes of war crimes.

Condizione: New. Hardback 560 pages Dimensions : 20.32 x 26.04 cmPublished Price £49.99 Babi Yar, Rumbula and Stanislaviv-these are places where apocalyptic slaughters were perpetrated during summer 1941. From June 27, 1941, this war erased most of the Jewish communities in the Baltic area, in Galicia, in Belorussia, and in Ukraine, with hundreds of thousands of victims. But round-ups in the ghettos and the persecution of Jews were not the only tasks in which the Ordnungspolizei was involved. All along the eastern front, police units were steadily engaged in a fierce antipartisan warfare, as well as in security activities behind the lines and in the surveillance of prisoners of war. Each chapter deals with one of the 145 battalions, including the Series 200 and the esoteric territorial battalions. The text has 42 tables, and a bibliography with more than 200 entries. There are 100 pictures, including 33 never-published pictures of the PB 72 in Slovenia, taken from the massive photo-album of a platoon leader of the 2/72.The Naval & Military Press stock Third Reich titles that provide a platform for authors and publishing houses who present an uncritical and historical portrayal of all aspects of the Nazi state and the German war effort during WW2.We do not condone in any way Fascism or the acts of genocide and the war crimes that were perpetuated by the German state and its minions between 1933 and 1945.Overseas clients please note: Due to excessively high wrapped weight shipping is weighted on this title.

Hardcover. Condizione: Very Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. 1st Edition. Dust jacket has a couple of faint scuffs. A visit to any well-stocked bookstore should quickly convince the average reader that there is certainly no shortage of books about the Second World War, particularly National Socialism and the Third Reich. More than five decades have passed since the war's end and its massive historiography continues to grow and evolve with seemingly no end in sight. It is probably foolish to think that the examination of and reflection on the 20th century's seminal event will ever reach completion. For example, there is a curious lack of published information concerning the numerous wartime atrocities (i.e., violations of international law such as killing non-combatant civilians, surrendering opponents, and prisoners of war) committed by Nazi Germany's military elite, the Waffen-SS. In fact, there are very few books currently in print that examine the nature and commission of war crimes perpetrated by any of the armed forces participating in the Second World War. Thus, it appears that the nearly forty divisions of the Waffen-SS have not been accorded any special treatment by military historians, but rather have benefited from an insidious and apparently universal form of ethical tunnel-vision. Examining an enemy's wartime behavior holds many potential dangers since our own conduct might then also be scrutinized with the goal of uncovering similar transgressions. This book is not intended to be read from cover to cover as a continuous narrative. Rather it is arranged into well-defined sections to have maximum utility as a reference work. The three main sections -- Atrocities, Unit Histories, and Individuals -- are adopted to guide readers along the most natural paths of inquiry: What happened and where? What was the unit s record of atrocities? What was the individual s involvement in atrocities? This is probably the most comprehensive reference book on the subject. Size: 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall.
