Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. A new book and D.J. that is unused and unmarked.288 pages, 16 maps Fighting in Hell presents four invaluable reports detailing the German campaign in Russia during World War II: Russian Combat Methods in World War II, Effects of Climate on Combat in European Russia, Combat in Russian Forests and Swamps and Warfare in the Far North. Like the reports in The Anvil of War, also published by Greenhill Books, they were written in the late 1940s and early 1950s as part of the U.S. Army program to record the German commanders' accounts and explanations of their strategies and tactics. The authors of these reports were all veterans of the fighting they described, and frankly admitted that the soldiers sent to Russia were neither trained nor equipped to withstand the full fury of the elements there. The German war in Russia was so brutal in all its extremes that all past experiences paled beside it. Everything in Russia - the land, the climate, the distances and above all the people - was harder, harsher, more unforgiving and more deadly than anything the German soldier had ever faced before. One panzer-grenadier who fought both in the West and in Russia summed it up: 'In the West war was the same honourable old game; nobody went out of his way to be vicious, and fighting stopped often by five in the afternoon. But in the East, the Russians were trying to kill you - all the time.' However, the German High Command were originally under the impression that the Red Army could be destroyed west of the Dnepr, and there would be no need for conducting operations in cold, snow and mud. Fighting in Hell shows what really happened, through first-hand accounts of the commanders who were there.

The word Gestapo still conjures up the overpowering images of horror and dread that it aroused in Europe before and during the Second World War and at Nuremberg when the truth of its terrible tortures, massacres and attempts at genocide was revealed. But what went on within the organisation itself? Here, Edward Crankshaw provides an authoritative study of the structure of the Gestapo, of its bitter rivalries with other police and service organisations, of its struggle for power, and of its leading personalities. He traces, too, how the Gestapo grew as an instrument of the Nazi police state under Himmler, who also controlled the SS; it ran side by side with the intelligence service, the SD, under Himmler's deputy Heydrich. The Gestapo grew even more powerful on the outbreak of war, as its tentacles spread all over the Occupied countries, using agents and local collaborators to undermine native resistance, using torture and death mercilessly to deter civilian populations from rising against their conquerors, and filling the concentration camps with fodder for mass extermination policies. Crankshaw details the known crimes of the Gestapo, showing its underlying responsibility in incidents of horrific dimensions where the chain of culpability has remained unclear. At Nuremberg the Gestapo was indicted as a criminal organisation, and its leaders war criminals. Edward Crankshaw, who in World War II was attached to the British Military Mission in Moscow, and afterwards, for over twenty years, was the highly regarded Correspondent on Soviet Affairs for the London Observer, examines in this valuable study the whole question of the Nazis' responsibility for crimes against humanity: was Nazi oppression a unique occurrence, or could such events happen again either in Germany or elsewhere? Gestapo: Instrument of Tyranny is a serious and comprehensive study of the development and use of evil in society, a sober revelation of the past and a warning for the future.
