Servants of Evil: New First-hand Accounts of the Second World War from the Survivors of Hitler's Wehrmacht

This is the story of the Second World War as told for the first time by survivors of Germany's armed forces, based on a six-part TV series by the award-winning production company Cromwell Productions to be screened on BBC Horizons in the UK and PBS in the US in 2001. These soldiers, many of whom have never spoken out about their experiences before have an incredible and sometimes shocking story to tell. Secrets which have been bottled up for a lifetime are revealed, untold stories are told at last and memories which have been hidden away for 60 years are rekindled. These are facets of history's most dreadful war being told for the very first time. Servants of Evil, edited with linking commentary by renowned Sandhurst historian Simon Trew, is a remarkable personal record of the Third Reich's rise and fall from the inside: of how those responsible for the maelstrom sent their armies to conquer only to see them crushed as the world united against them: of men who were seduced by the siren call of Hitler, only to pay a terribly heavy price. This book allows the human stories to unfold within the bigger picture behind the major campaigns of the Second World War - from the early Blitzkrieg successes through the submarine warfare of the Battle of the Atlantic, and the brutal hardships of the Russian Front, to the last days of the Reich and the fall of Berlin. Servants of Evil is a brilliantly researched and though-provoking book that reveals unique human dimensions of the world's greatest military conflict..
