"In 1945 the once-mighty Wehrmacht was reduced to a pathetic shadow of its former self as the thousand-year Reich lay in ruins. The war in the West had been lost and its protagonists scattered in prisoner-of-war camps across Europe. Milton Shulman, then a young intelligence officer with the Canadian Army in north-west Europe, had the good fortune to interrogate twenty-six of the most senior officers to be taken prisoner, such men as von Rundstedt, 'Sepp' Dietrich and Kurt Student. From their candid observations on German military performance and the nature of the fallen regime, he learnt why it was that such a superbly armed and trained body of fighting men suffered such a calamitous defeat."--BOOK JACKET.Shulman, Milton is the author of 'Defeat in the West' with ISBN 9781872947037 and ISBN 1872947034.
