In the early years of the Third Reich, Hermann Göring, one of the most notorious leaders of the Third Reich, worked to establish his own personal army to rival Himmler's SS and Reichswehr. The result: a private Prussian police force which grew into one of the most powerful armored units in Nazi Germany's Wehrmacht.

This unit fought throughout the Second World War, meeting Anglo-American forces in vicious battles across the European theatres of Tunisia, Sicily, and Italy before finally being defeated by the Red Army on the Eastern Front. The Hermann Göring Panzer Division incorporates technical details of these battles with the turbulent politics and Machiavellian maneuvering of Hitler's inner circle, giving military-history enthusiasts fresh insights into the development and role of this unusual division through the war.

Drawing on firsthand accounts and extensive archive material, World War II historian Lawrence Paterson presents a comprehensive and unbiased history of the establishment of the famous Fallschirm-Panzer Division.

Excellent operational history of the HG Panzer Korps with very good narration by Mr. Lee.

Excellent operational history!

In the forward it justifies the reason for leaving all the tables in place in the audiobook, and I don’t remember or care what that justification is, it was a horrendous decision. They should have been cut. Nothing whatsoever is gained from hearing the narrator pause every 5-10 minutes to read a 15-30 line table. I finally gave up when, skipping 2-3 minutes ahead, I came back in to him reading a list of sections of the division that were marked as “not yet formed”. Literally a solid 30-35 seconds of him reading “second motorcycle battalion, not yet formed…third motorcycle battalion, not yet formed…fourth Volkswagen battalion….not yet formed…”. Do yourself a favor and buy the print version, skip the audiobook.

Terrible as an audiobook
