Description
The IV SS-Panzerkorps: A Key Player on the Eastern Front During World War II, the Waffen-SS branch of the Third Reich's security service expanded rapidly, growing from two divisions in 1940 to 38 divisions by the end of the war. In response, Heinrich Himmler, the SS chief, established his own SS corps and army headquarters, including the IV SS-Panzerkorps, which was activated in July 1944 to defend Warsaw. This book provides a detailed account of the IV SS-Panzerkorps' role in the key battles fought on the Eastern Front during the last year of the war. The author's well-researched and well-illustrated volume sheds new light on a previously overlooked chapter in the history of the Waffen-SS. With its focus on the IV SS-Panzerkorps, this book offers a fresh perspective on a pivotal moment in World War II history.
