Gerald R Kleinfeld

A history of the 47,000 Spanish soldiers who volunteered to fight for Hitler in Russia during World War II.

Set apart from the Wehrmacht by stark differences in culture, tactics, and command structure, these volunteers fought—many of them to the death—with courage and tenacity against strong opposition, extreme temperatures, and insufficient supplies for what they believed was their chance to secure Spain’s place in a new and changing Europe.
