This fact is reflected in the continued publication of books on a variety of World War II topics and battle units. Among the many military formations of the period there is one that, justifiably, arouses particularly strong emotions, the Waffen-SS. Feared as ferocious adversaries and despised as war criminals, the fighting arm of the SS seems to sum up all that was evil in Hitler's Nazi regime. It was a major reason why almost unquestioningly the Waffen-SS became the Nazi's instrument in a number of horrific atrocities, which saw the SS branded as war criminals at the Nuremberg trials."; 9.3 X 6.3 X 0.4 inches; 128 pages .
