HITLER'S VOLKSSTURM THE NAZI MILITIA AND THE FALL OF GERMANY 1944-1945

  • Price: $45.00  $50.00

Book Type: C

By David Yelton. Hitler played his final card in WWII by mobilizing all German civilian males between 16 and 60 and indoctrinating them for a final apocalyptic defense of the Reich. Yelton provides new insights into why the German high command sought this means to prolong an unwinnable war - and why so many civilians chose to fight to the bitter end. This is the only book in English and the most comprehensive in any language on the German militia, illuminating its role and contributions to the German war effort and shedding new light on the last days of the Third Reich. It examines the militia's strategic purpose, organization, training, and combat performance on both war fronts and explores factors contributing to its sporadic tactical successes and its overall failure. Yelton also reveals why German leadership chose to assemble such last-ditch units rather than negotiating for peace and also why civilians in these units were more than willing to serve. Pathbreaking in both scope and depth it ultimately provides a more complete portrait of the Third Reich during the final phase of the war, 34 photographs. 344 pp.
