3 volumes : illustrations ; 24 cm

James "Jack" Webb was born and raised in Denver, Colorado. While growing up, he always enjoyed asking about and listening to the war stories told by his uncles who served in Europe during the Second World War. One side of his family were from the South and fought in the Civil War as well as other major conflicts in the United States military. The other side were from Japan and despite losing everything due to the attack on Pearl Harbor, were allowed to fight for their country and the freedom of their families. James has studied the conflicts in Europe for the last 38 years and continues to work in the medical field.

This three-volume set offers concise biographical information for over five thousand generals and admirals of the Third Reich. It covers all branches of service, ordered alphabetically and provides a brief, though scholarly, overview of each individual, including personal details and dates for all attachments to unit, and medals awarded, offering a readily accessible go-to reference work for all World War II researchers and historians. In addition to the biographic information, each volume includes extensive appendices. The books are packed with information on these senior officers of the Third Reich, many of whom are little documented in the English language. -- Provided by publisher.
