Curbside Pickup is available. Click here for our interim services. Germany's 2nd SS Panzer Division, one of Adolf Hitler's most elite armor units, had recently been pulled from the June 1944 Front and relocated to France in order to regroup, recruit more troops, and restock equipment. With Allied forces suddenly on European ground, the division-Das Reich -was called up to counter the invasion. Its march northward to the shores of Normandy, 15, men strong, would become infamous as a tale of unparalleled brutality in World War II. Das Reich is Sir Max Hastings's narrative of the atrocities committed by the 2nd SS Panzer Division during June of first, the execution of 99 French civilians in the village of Tulle on June 9; and second, the massacre of more in the village of Oradour-sur-Glane on June Throughout the book, Hastings expertly shifts perspective between French resistance fighters, the British Secret Service who helped coordinate the French resistance from afar and on the groundand the German soldiers themselves. With its rare, unbiased approach to the ruthlessness of World War II, Das Reich explores the fragile moral fabric of wartime mentality. Hastings, M. Hastings, Max. My Account. Log Out. Search for.
