Description

SS Peiper. The Life and Death of SS Colonel Jochen Peiper by Charles Whiting (aka Leo Kessler). 'Military Genius or Nazi War Criminal? When an elderly German was violently done to death in a little French village an Bastille Day 1976, no real attempt was made to track down the killers who'd dogged him for 32 years. The man's name was Jochen Peiper, former leader of one of the most renowned units in the German Army. The crime for which it was assumed his unknown assassins were taking revenge: the brutal murder of unarmed US soldiers in the winter of 1944-45. SS Peiper tells the fascinating story of this enigmatic man - regarded by some as a brilliant soldier and by others as a Nazi war criminal - and considers the problem of why society condones some wartime killings. . . but only if the 'game' is played according to the rules.' The book has light general wear with light foxing and small creases but oveall a tight and bright copy.
