Peiper's War by Danny S. Parker Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Peiper had served as Heinrich Himmler's personal adjutant between November 1940 and August 1941. Publisher Description A bad reputation has its commitments.' So wrote home Jochen Peiper from the fighting front in the East in 1943, characterising his battle-hardened command during the Second World War. Peiper's War is a new serious work of military history by the renowned author Danny S. Parker which presents a unique view off the Second World War as seen from a prominent participant on the dark side of history. The story follows the wartime career of Waffen SS Colonel Jochen Peiper, a handsome Aryan prodigy who was considered a hero in the Third Reich. Peiper had been Heinrich Himmler's personal adjutant in the early years of the war, and, having procured a field command in Hitler's namesake fighting force, the Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler, he become famous for a flamboyant and brutal style of warfare on the Eastern Front. There, in his sphere, few prisoners were taken, and motives of racial genocide were never far from unspoken orders. Transferred to the west, Peiper's battlegroup incinerated a tiny town in Northern Italy and killed the village mayor and priest. Being well-connected to Himmler and other generals of the period, Peiper finds a place in the narrative as a storied witness to the inner workings of the Nazi elite along with other prominent SS officers such as Kurt Meyer. In this meticulously researched work, we witness the apex and then death spiral of Nazi military intentions as Peiper fights for Germany across every front in the conflict. Peiper's War provides a telling inside look at Hitler's war and then how the dark secrets of his security-minded command were improbably unearthed at the end of the conflict by an obscure top-secret surveillance facility in the United States. AUTHOR: Danny S. Parker developed a keen interest in the history of the Second World War at an early age. For twenty years, he has researched an in-depth biography of Jochen Peiper - an effort which spans over 200 interviews in the US and Europe. Unique information developed on the Malmedy massacre saw the publication of Fatal Crossroads in 2011. His general biography of Peiper, Hitler's Warrior, was released in December 2014 and this latest book chronicles the war years of that iconic personality. 32 b/w illustrations Details ISBN 1526743426 ISBN-13 9781526743428 Title Peiper's War Author Danny S.

Like new condition, safe packaging, good communication from seller. Fair price for the quality. Shipping was on time, but tracking information took over a week to receive. The book was as-described with minor cosmetic flaws (indentations in some pages, for example). I wish the listings showed the actual item being sold to you instead of just an accurate stock photo. This edition and appearance of George Orwell's 1984 here is a nice pocket-sized hardcover. I would buy from this shop again.
The two new out-of-print books I ordered were exactly as described and shipped promptly. I did ask the seller's support person (an AI chatbot, I think) to be sure to package the items carefully, and "he" said that he'd make that request of the shipping department. I knew this was hooey, and as I expected, the books were shipped in nothing but a padded paper mailer, no other protection. I got lucky, no damage, but don't bother making special requests of this seller.
Lightning fast shipping. Item arrived before the delivery date, perfect. Item arrived carefully packaged and was exactly as described. Very pleased. Great communication throughout the process. Very attentive to detail and responsive. Will buy from again! Had a small issue with the item, but the seller resolved it quickly. Great customer service! The seller went above and beyond to make sure I was happy with my purchase. Highly recommended!
