Waffen-Ss: The Illustrated History 1923-1945

Rating:
Summary: Very good photos although history not absolutely accurate
Review: I found this book to be very informative in regards to the forming, expanding role of, and military signifigance of the Waffen SS. Furthermore I thought that the photos included were extremely good. However, Alisby incorrectly concludes that the antisemitec idiology was mainly a result of Nazism. I take offense to that. Extermanationist antisemitism, as thouroughly discussed in "Hittlers Willing Executioners",by Daniel Jonah Goldhagen, was more a result of Centuries of an expanding antisemitic litany than any influence that Hittler's 'education' had. Alisby would do well to research this point more completely.
