SS ARMOUR ON THE EASTERN FRONT 1943-1945

In comparison to the early war years, there has always seemed to be a dearth of photographic material relating to German armour operations during the latter half of World War II. This was especially true of the Waffen-SS. Despite the fearsome reputation it had earned even during the war years, the Waffen-SS has always been under-represented in photographic studies of the Eastern Front. That is, until now. Combing through previously unknown archives in south-eastern Europe, Velimir Vuksic has been able to find a large number of previously unpublished images of outstanding quality concerning this fascinating subject. Includes a sixteen-page colour section, five maps and twelve organisational diagrams. Almost every photograph is half-page or bigger! Units covered: 1.SS-Panzer-Division "Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler" * 2.SS-Panzer-Division "Das Reich" * 3.SS-Panzer-Division "Totenkopf" * 5.SS-Panzer-Division "Wiking" * A host of other formations and heretofore rarely seen vehicles and equipment. The book features chapters on these operations: Zhitomir * Cherkassy * Tarnopol * Kovel * Warsaw * Budapest. A quality Fedorowicz publication.
