This first of two studies examining the careers and illustrates the appearance and uniforms of 19 of the German Army’s leading field commanders in World War II.Their service covers the whole arc of that army’s wartime experience, from stunning success in 1939–41, through the hugely costly middle years on the Russian Front to the stubborn defensive fighting in both East and West in 1943–45. Also included are five more junior unit commanders chosen because their service typifies the achievements of combat leaders in regimental and battalion commands.The colour portraits are in the uniquely meticulous style of the respected World War II illustrator Malcolm McGregor.

The decision to reintroduce unit Colours for the armed forces of the new Wehrmacht involved many problems.No unit flags and standards had been produced since before 1914.

Davis's text examines the flags of the Wehrmacht, in this first of three volumes concerning flags of the Third Reich.

The population of Britain was mobilized to support the war effort on a scale unseen in any other Western democracy – or in Nazi Germany.They endured long working shifts, shortages of food and all other goods, and complete government control of their daily lives. Most men and women were conscripted or volunteered for additional tasks outside their formal working hours. Under the air raids that destroyed the centres of many towns and made about 2 million homeless, more than 60,000 civilians were killed and 86,000 seriously injured.This fascinating illustrated summary of wartime life, and the organizations that served on the Home Front, is a striking record of endurance and sacrifice.

The first detailed, illustrated description in English of wartime life in Germany, and the tentacles of the Nazi state as they affected every man, woman and child.German families suffered the same hardships as British - labour conscription, extra civic duties, severe shortages of food and necessities, disrupted transport, homelessness and evacuation, separation from loved ones and, for many, bereavement.However, there were important differences. The dictator for whom many had voted was leading them to ruin; unequalled death and devastation ensued from Allied air raids; and every aspect of life was caged around with repressive decrees that began to replace the true rule of law well before September 1939.This book outlines and illustrates the living conditions of German civilians in World War II, and the Nazi state's basic structure.
