World War 2: Soldier Stories III: The Untold Stories of German Soldiers

UPDATE: THIRD EDITION - WITH EVEN MORE ADDED CONTENT

Few would argue that the Nazi Germany Regime was brutal and inhumane. The atrocities that were committed by the Nazi's will remain a shameful chapter in history for possibly centuries to come. Beyond that though are the humans behind the swastika. This book takes a look at those men.

In Poland, the Germans fought for ground, taking a beating on all sides. At times, they were forced back but eventually prevailed. While we do not celebrate their win, the story behind it is a tactical lesson. A lesson that even modern military leaders can take note of. This story is not just about the Germans though but the valor of the Polish men who fought back against them as well.

There is the story of a German soldier that earned one of the highest medals for combat action after fighting for over 50 days of close combat until he was injured and captured by the Soviets.

Read about his war actions and the other honors that he earned. Find out if he survived the war or if he was lost forever in Soviet hands.

Then there is the chilling story of Stalingrad and the dreaded Kessel. This was not just a battle of a city but of a larger scale. The horrors that awaited the solders there were some of the worst in the war outside of the Germans own concentration camps. Read about what desperate measures, desperate men took in order to survive.

This book takes a look at the other side of the lines without judgement or endorsement. If you ever wondered what happened on the other side of the battle, this is the perfect place to start.

Comments from Other Readers:

"I have read many of Ryan Jenkins' book. I appreciate the style and their succicent structure. More than the ease in which I am able to read these books, I love the content. I enjoy being regaled with history. I don't like books that are overwrought or the cover something common. I read the first 2 parts of solider stories and I enjoyed them. When I learned about part 2, I had to buy. In this installment, I learned about the war from the German perspective. Oftentimes, we learn about the evils of the Third Reich but told from another perspective. It's good to get that insight. I feel I have a better understanding of that part of history as a result of reading this." - Rob (Columbus, USA)

"There are plenty of stories that you may not know about that happened during World War 2 since the main focus is on the survivors and those who's accounts were written before death. This is a great book if you want to know more about the German side. Not all of them were bad people, so this is very interesting to me. This book accounts for only a few soldiers but it's very detailed on what they went through during the course of the war." - Ashleigh (San Diego, USA)
