✦ Synopsis


This collection of photographs presents a visual history of the German soldier’s experiences and challenges on the Eastern Front during World War II. Hundreds of photos depict army and Waffen SS soldiers, uniforms, weapons and equipment, tanks and other vehicles, aircraft, local villages, life on the front lines, and much more, while the caption text offers insight and detailed information. Many of these photos are rare, and most come from private collections and have never been published before. This is an ideal reference for military history fans, scholars, modelers, and reenactors, and the perfect companion to the narrative accounts found in the Stackpole Military History Series.
