Formed in 1942, the 8th SS Cavalry Division "Florian Geyer" was one
of the most controversial units in the Waffen-SS. Created with the
intention of making it an elite unit within the Waffen-SS, it
instead saw its main employment from the beginning of the war in
Russia as a rear area security force against partisans. The SS
cavalrymen carried out these duties with terrible effectiveness,
demonstrating the full capabilities of horse-mounted units in
securing terrain that was militarily difficult. Late in the war,
"Florian Geyer" was employed on the front lines against regular
units of the Red Army. The unit was wiped out during final battle
of Budapest in February 1945. Detailed operational history, rare
combat images, maps, and personality profiles make this book the
definitive history of "Florian Geyer."
