Beskrivelse
In the early years of the Third Reich, Hermann Goring, one of the most notorious leaders of the Third Reich, worked to establish his own personal army to rival Himmler's SS and Reichswehr. The result: a private Prussian police force which grew into one of the most powerful armoured units in Nazi Germany's Wehrmacht.This unit fought throughout the Second World War, meeting Anglo-American forces in vicious battles across the European theatres of Tunisia, Sicily and Italy before finally being defeated by the Red Army on the Eastern Front. The Hermann Goring Panzer Division incorporates technical details of these battles with the turbulent politics and Machiavellian manoeuvring of Hitler's inner circle, giving military-history enthusiasts fresh insights into the development and role of this unusual division through the war.Drawing on first-hand accounts and extensive archive material, World War II historian Lawrence Paterson presents a comprehensive and unbiased history of the establishment of the famous 1\. Fallschirm-Panzer Division.
