The biography of Hitler's 26 German Field Marshals with Full Campaign History.

In 1940, a total of nineteen army and six Luftwaffe Field Marshals occupied the highest ranks within Germany's military structure. Their early successes during World War II showcased their formidable power and capabilities, leading to much of Europe falling under Hitler's dominion. However, by the final days of the conflict, only two of those Field Marshals remained in command of troops engaged in Germany's desperate last stand.

This edition of 'Hitler's Field Marshal's' chronicles the ascent and decline of the leading figures of the German military apparatus. Each chapter delves into the lives, careers, and combat experiences of the commander on the battlefield.

The profiles present an unexpected array of individuals: Erich von Manstein, recognised as one of the most brilliant military strategists of World War II, even instilled fear in Hitler due to his exceptional skills and had several confrontations with Nazi authorities, including one incident where he protested against Nazi racial policies. Erwin Rommel, famously known as the 'Desert Fox', achieved numerous victories against larger and more well-equipped forces, Walter Model ventured into the most perilous hotspots across Europe to 'troubleshoot' for Hitler's military until, during his final engagement, he intentionally sought to be shot. Baron von Weichs was a committed Catholic, while the aristocratic Ewald von Kleist held monarchist views. Erwin von Witzleben was executed by the Fuhrer, hanged from a meat hook, for his attempt to assassinate Hitler. Finally Fredrich Paulus who surrendered in 1943 to the Russians the day after he was made a Field Marshal. The accounts of the other Field Marshals are equally captivating.
