SIDGWICK JACKSON

At the end of the Second World War, nearly 200 British citizens were under investigation for assisting Nazi Germany. Many have remained notorious, but this study shows there was a much larger and more intriguing story below the surface. Drawing from original documents, eyewitness accounts, and intelligence files, Adrian Weale traces the course of British treason in World War II, from its roots in Oswald Mosley’s British Union of Fascists, through the war and subsequent investigations, up to the trial, imprisonment, and, in some cases, execution of the traitors. In fact, German efforts to cultivate British traitors were largely unsuccessfulnot least, as this book reveals, because much of that effort was entrusted to a British Fascist-turned-double agent at work in the heart of the Third Reich.

Army of Evil: A History of the SS

Dutton Caliber

The SS is the most historically important institution of Third Reich Germany yet it remains amongst the least well understood. The SS was at the forefront of implementing the most radical and terrible policies of Nazi Germany: the Jewish Holocaust and mass resettlement of Russia and eastern Europe; the enslavement of the working population of the whole of occupied Europe. Yet at the same time members of the SS were subverting Nazi racial and foreign policy, associating with the Nazi resistance and even attempting to seek a separate peace with the western allies in direct defiance of Hitler's orders. This thought-provoking new book argues that as the ideological 'engine room' of National Socialism, a study of the SS is the best way of gaining insight into how Nazism would have evolved if Germany had not lost the war. Packed full of the exceptional detail that comes from careful new research, this book will be the book to buy on the SS for a generation.
