" Based on new research carried out by award winning production company Cromwell Productions for their television series of the same name, Servants of Evil is the story of World War Two as told for the first time by survivors of Germany's armed forces. Like old soldiers everywhere, they are fading away, but these men have an incredible and sometimes shocking story to tell. What they have to say certainly does not make for comfortable reading. Secrets which have been bottled up for a lifetime are revealed, unheard stories are told at last and memories which have been hidden away for 60 years are finally brought to light. These are facets of history's most dreadful war being revealed for the very first time. Servants of Evil is a remarkable personal record of the Third Reich's rise and fall from the inside: of how those responsible for the maelstrom sent their armies to conquer only to see them crushed as the world united against them; of men who were seduced by the siren call of Hitler, only to pay a terribly heavy price. The human stories unfold within the bigger picture behind the major campaigns of World War Two ~ from the early Blitzkrieg successes of the Luftwaffe through the submarine warfare of the Battle of the Atlantic, the brutal hardships of the Russian Front, and the experiences of those taken prisoner, to the last days of the Reich and the fall of Berlin. Servants of Evil is a brilliantly researched and thought~provoking book that reveals unique human dimensions of the world's greatest military conflict. ".
