About This Item
Ithaca: Cornell University Press [0-8014-9275-0] 1984. (Trade paperback) 330pp. Very good. Notes, photographs, maps, tables, appendix, bibliography, index. The spine is faded, the covers are a bit rubbed and edgeworn and there is a vertical crease along the bottom corner of the front cover. "Now in paperback, this landmark study shows how Hitler's elite army grew from a paetorian guard of barely 28,000 men at the beginning of the war to a combat-hardened army of more than 500,000 in 1945. Mr. Stein examines in detail the structure and organization of the Waffen SS and describes the rigid personnel selection and intensive physical, military, and ideological training that helped to create the tough and dedicated cadre around which the larger force of the later war years was built". Identified on cover as: Hitler's Elite Guard at War; the Waffen SS. (World War II, Military History, Waffen SS, World War 2, World War II).
