The Waffen-SS: The Third Reich's Most Infamous Military Organization

Nigel Cawthorne
3.33/5 (44 ratings)
Read Now Download Now
The best political weapon is the weapon of terror. Cruelty commands respect. Men may hate us. But we don't ask for their love - only for their fear - Heinrich Himmler, leader of the Waffen-SS.

The Waffen-SS were the armed division of the feared Schutzstaffel , and the private army of Adolf Hitler. They developed a reputation as brutal soldiers, willing to carry out any order, no matter how terrible. Fanatically devoted to Nazism and unswervingly loyal to the Führer, they were committed some of the most horrific atrocities of World War II as they sought to enforce the racial policies of the Nazi state.

In this unflinching and engrossing account, Nigel Cawthorne provides a detailed look at one of the most chilling organizations ever conceived by the human imagination. He examines their elite position under the Nazi regime, the superior weapons they were afforded, their involvement in the murderous crimes of the Holocaust, and the way they thrust their claws into every aspect of German life.

Illustrated with reportage photographs, this is the story of the rise and fall of one of the most evil organizations the world has ever seen.
