SS Totenkopf Division at War by Ian Baxter

The SS Totenkopf (Death Head) Division even 70 years on retains its formidable and ruthless reputation as a superbly efficient yet murderous formation. It earned this for its actions throughout the Second World War, first in 1940 during the blitzkrieg in Northern France and then on the Eastern Front. The battles at Kharkov and Kurst saw some of the fiercest fighting of that long and terrible campaign. During the long retreat back to the Fatherland the Division fought with customary dogged determination, nay fanaticism. This superbly illustrated work, drawing on images taken by participants, portrays the SS Totenkopfs history from formation through training to the battles in northern France and in Russia.
Ian Baxter is an avid collector of WW2 photographs. His previous books in this Series include Hitlers Boy Soldiers, Nazi Concentration Camp Commandants and German Army on the Eastern Front The Advance, German Army on the Eastern Front The Retreat and Nazi Concentration Camp Commandants, The Crushing of Army Group (North) and SS Leibstandarte Division At War. He lives near Chelmsford, Essex.
