Book Synopsis

This landmark study, first published by Cornell University Press in 1966, shows how Hitler's elite army grew from a praetorian guard of barely 28,000 men at the beginning of the Second World War to a combat-hardened army of more than 500,000 in 1945...



Trade Review

It is a real pleasure to read a scholarly book which is well written, concise, and most importantly, where the author bases himself solidly upon the most important primary sources.... Stein stands out as one who has delved deeply into the captured German documents and used these materials to make a real contribution to our knowledge of the Third Reich.
