In the turbulent times of the post-World War One era, new political
parties emerged frequently in Germany, many with opposing extremist
policies. The Communist movement grew out of the Socialist working
classes using the Russian Bolshevik Party as a template. In direct
opposition, the new National Socialist German Workers Party under
the leadership of Adolf Hitler, occupied the extreme right-wing
position. Head on conflict was inevitable and both parties
organised violent demonstrations against the other. Hitler
recognised that he was physically vulnerable and ordered the
formation of his own protection squad, made up of loyal men who
would not shirk from a fight. From the rudimentary ranks of
Hitler's select few grew the infant SS, a modern praetorian guard,
which developed over the years into a massive and efficient
military style force with tentacles spreading into all elements of
everyday life in Nazi Germany. To administer this organisation,
Hitler appointed leaders upon whom he could rely. Many names remain
obscure, but this book highlights who they all were and how they
appeared.
