Historie

A history of the development and role during World War II of the private army of the Nazi Luftwaffe's commander-in-chief.

In the early years of the Third Reich, Hermann Göring, one of the most notorious leaders of the Third Reich, worked to establish his own personal army to rival Himmler's SS and Reichswehr. The result: a private Prussian police force which grew into one of the most powerful armored units in Nazi Germany's Wehrmacht.

This unit fought throughout the Second World War, meeting Anglo-American forces in vicious battles across the European theatres of Tunisia, Sicily, and Italy before finally being defeated by the Red Army on the Eastern Front. This book incorporates technical details of these battles with the turbulent politics and Machiavellian maneuvering of Hitler's inner circle, giving military-history enthusiasts fresh insights into the development and role of this unusual division through the war.

Drawing on first-hand accounts and extensive archive material, World War II historian Lawrence Paterson presents a comprehensive and unbiased history of the establishment of the famous 1st Fallschirm-Panzer Division. Praise for Fallschirm–Panzer Division 'Hermann Göring'

"A fine study, well written, thoroughly researched and highly readable." —The Journal of Military History

"An important contribution to an otherwise little-known but fascinating unit." —History of War

"For anybody interested in the role of this elite unit, it is a 'must read' and as part of an understanding of the campaigns it fought, it offers a wider perspective of its interaction with adjoining units." —Michael McCarthy, Battlefield Guide
