Waffen-Ss (2), The 6 To 10 Divisions

Description: In the early 1920s, a tiny group was formed within the SA to serve as Hitler's personal bodyguard. Originally labelled the 'Stosstruppe Adolf Hitler', they later became known as the SS - Schutz Staffeln, or 'protection squad'. This second of four titles covers the first wave of expansion: the Sixth Division 'Nord'; the Austrian Seventh Mountain Division 'Prinz Eugen' which fought Tito's partisans; the housed cavalry of Eight Division 'Florian Geyer' which operated on the Eastern Front; and the two formidable new Panzer Divisions, Ninth 'Hohenstaufen' and Tenth 'Frundsberg', which fought the Western Allies in 1944. Table of Contents: 6. SS Gebirgs Division 'Nord'; 7. SS Freiwilligen Gebirgs Division 'Prinz Eugen'; 8. SS Kavallerie Division 'Florian Geyer'; 9. SS Panzer Division 'Hohenstaufen'; 10. SS Panzer Division 'Frundsberg'.
