Das Salzkammergut mit seinen wild zerklüfteten Gebirgszügen war eine der regionalen Hochburgen des Widerstands gegen den Nationalsozialismus. Gegen Ende des Krieges diente die unwegsame Bergwelt zwischen Dachstein und Totem Gebirge zahlreichen Deserteuren und politisch Verfolgten als letzter Zufluchtsort. Unter Führung des legendären Josef "Sepp" Plieseis bildete sich eine partisanenartige Widerstandsgruppe, deren Ziel die Bekämpfung der Nationalsozialisten war. Ihr Deckname: "Willy-Fred". Christan Topfs unkonventionelles Wanderbuch bietet elf Routenvorschläge mit ausführlichen Erzählungen und Zeitzeugenberichten. Ein weiteres Kapitel behandelt die Geschichte des ehemaligen KZ-Außenlagers Ebensee.

He was evil incarnate, a main perpetrator of the Holocaust. Standing at six foot four inches and with deeply grotesque facial scars, he instilled fear as Hitler's top executioner of death. This thoroughly researched book takes you into the twisted psyche of one of the most vile and murdering figures of the Nazi regime. Ernst Kaltenbrunner was a high-ranking Austrian SS official, a driven anti-Semite, and fanatical Hitler loyalist. Rising quickly in the ranks, he was personally appointed as Chief of the Reich Security Main Office (RSHA) — which included the Gestapo, Kripo, and SD — by Himmler himself. Under Kaltenbrunner's command, the genocide of Jews greatly intensified as the process of extermination throughout the occupied countries picked up incredible pace. Over seventy years later, Arthur Birago stumbles upon a mind-blowing forty-page letter by Kaltenbrunner that was hidden away in a safe of the State Archive of Upper Austria. Written secretly in Nuremberg prison while waiting to be executed, the letter is addressed to his children and was smuggled out in the bra of a female visitor. It's a sentimental and mendacious account of his childhood memories and upbringing in the countryside, from where he climbed to the zenith of power in the Nazi ranks and ultimately enjoyed the privilege of having direct access to Hitler. The letter is Kaltenbrunner's legacy to his children and a potential blueprint of a future all-powerful Fourth Reich. K - Kaltenbrunner is a meticulously researched and powerfully written book based on the historical facts surrounding Ernst Kaltenbrunner's last months of life. The prose masterfully draws you deeper and deeper into his distorted and abysmal psyche until you're sitting face to face with the Nazi monster inside his cell on death row. A riveting historical, creative nonfiction, K - Kaltenbrunner brings to life little known facts about the former "Lord of the concentration camps" never published before. It's perfect for readers interested in the Holocaust, World War Two historical nonfiction, WWII War Criminals, and the Nuremberg trials. Order your copy now and get ready to delve into the distorted mind of a war criminal, who ordered in the morning the killing of thousands of innocent people in the gas chambers of the concentration camps and was in the evening at home a loving father to his children.

This short e-book, adapted from Noah Charney's book Stealing the Mystic Lamb, tells the dramatic story of the rescue of The Ghent Altarpiece from Nazi pillagers. As the Nazis stormed across Europe during the Second World War, hundreds of thousands of artworks disappeared in their wake. A group of Allied officers set off on the trail of Europe's vanished art treasures—they were known as the Monuments Men. The investigations of the Monuments Men combined old-fashioned detective work, personal bravery, ingenuity, and a dose of good fortune. This is perhaps best exemplified in the story of the race to save the 12,000 stolen masterpieces that were kept in a secret art warehouse hidden deep inside a converted salt mine in the Austrian Alps. There awaited the treasures destined for Hitler's planned “super museum,” which would contain every important artwork in the world. The prize of the collection, and the painting most desired by the Nazis, was Jan van Eyck's 1432 masterwork, The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, also known as The Ghent Altarpiece. This massive masterpiece is considered the most influential painting ever made, and it is also the most-frequently stolen. This e-book single is adapted from Noah Charney's acclaimed book Stealing the Mystic Lamb: the True Story of the World's Most Coveted Masterpiece. It contains all of the material from that book on the Monuments Men and Nazi art theft during the Second World War, as told through the story of two Monuments Men, Robert Posey and Lincoln Kirstein, as they raced to save the Mystic Lamb and the other works in the salt mine from an SS officer who was determined to destroy all 12,000 masterpieces.

Jan van Eyck's Ghent Altarpiece is on any art historian's list of the ten most important paintings ever made. Often referred to by the subject of its central panel, The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb, it represents the fulcrum between the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. It is also the most frequently stolen artwork of all time. Since its completion in 1432, this twelve-panel oil painting has been looted in three different wars, burned, dismembered, forged, smuggled, illegally sold, censored, hidden, attacked by iconoclasts, hunted by the Nazis and Napoleon, used as a diplomatic tool, ransomed, rescued by Austrian double-agents, and stolen a total of thirteen times. In this fast-paced, real-life thriller, art historian Noah Charney unravels the stories of each of these thefts. In the process, he illuminates the whole fascinating history of art crime, and the psychological, ideological, religious, political, and social motivations that have led many men to covet this one masterpiece above all others.

There are certain parallels between the operations Vladimir Putin initiated in the wake of the Ukraine crisis of 2014 and the approach Stalin took in the region during the Second World War.Stalin's ruthless use of scorched earth tactics, the deliberate provocation of reprisals of the occupiers against the civilian population, the destruction of their own villages, the chaotic collection of taxes in kind from the population, accompanied by everyday looting, benders, fornication and violence, fratricidal internal conflicts, the use of doping, the operational use of bacteriological weapons, and even cannibalism -- all this was not a random price for the massive bloodshed and no spontaneous response of the population to the brutality of the German occupation in the 1940s. These were, as Alexander Gogun shows in his historiographical investigation, planned or consciously accepted phenomena and peculiarities of Stalin's warfare tactics.A book that makes an important contribution to the historical context of the current crisis in Ukraine.Es finden sich Parallelen zwischen den von Wladimir Putin im Zuge der Ukraine-Krise 2014 initiierten Operationen in der Ukraine und dem dortigen Vorgehen Stalins während des zweiten Weltkriegs. Stalins rücksichtslose Anwendung der Taktik der verbrannten Erde, das absichtliche Provozieren von Repressalien der Besatzer gegen die Zivilisten, die Vernichtung eigener Dörfer, die chaotische Eintreibung von Naturalsteuern von der Bevölkerung, begleitet von alltäglichen Plünderungen, Besäufnissen, Unzucht und Gewalt, brudermörderische innere Konflikte, die Benutzung von Doping, der operative Einsatz bakteriologischer Waffen und sogar Kannibalismus -- all das war in den 1940er Jahren kein zufälliger Preis für das massenhafte Blutvergießen und auch keine spontane Antwort des Volkes auf die Brutalität der deutschen Besatzungsherrschaft. Dies waren, wie Alexander Gogun in seiner vorliegenden historiographischen Untersuchung aufzeigt, geplante oder bewusst in Kauf genommene Erscheinungen und Besonderheiten der Kriegsführung Stalins.Ein Buch, das einen wichtigen Beitrag zur historischen Einordnung der aktuellen Ukraine-Krise leistet.

Already acclaimed in England as "first-rate" (The Sunday Times); “a model of meticulous, courageous and path-breaking scholarship"(Literary Review); and "absorbing and thoroughly gripping… deserves a lasting place among histories of the war.” (The Sunday Telegraph), Hunting Evil is the first complete and definitive account of how the Nazis escaped and were pursued and captured -- or managed to live long lives as fugitives. At the end of the Second World War, an estimated 30,000 Nazi war criminals fled from justice, including some of the highest ranking members of the Nazi Party. Many of them have names that resonate deeply in twentieth-century history -- Eichmann, Mengele, Martin Bormann, and Klaus Barbie -- not just for the monstrosity of their crimes, but also because of the shadowy nature of their post-war existence, holed up in the depths of Latin America, always one step ahead of their pursuers. Aided and abetted by prominent people throughout Europe, they hid in foreboding castles high in the Austrian alps, and were taken in by shady Argentine secret agents. The attempts to bring them to justice are no less dramatic, featuring vengeful Holocaust survivors, inept politicians, and daring plots to kidnap or assassinate the fugitives. In this exhaustively researched and compellingly written work of World War II history and investigative reporting, journalist and novelist Guy Walters gives a comprehensive account of one of the most shocking and important aspects of the war: how the most notorious Nazi war criminals escaped justice, how they were pursued, captured or able to remain free until their natural deaths and how the Nazis were assisted while they were on the run by "helpers" ranging from a Vatican bishop to a British camel doctor, and even members of Western intelligence services. Based on all new interviews with Nazi hunters and former Nazis and intelligence agents, travels along the actual escape routes, and archival research in Germany, Britain, the United States, Austria, and Italy, Hunting Evil authoritatively debunks much of what has previously been understood about Nazis and Nazi hunters in the post war era, including myths about the alleged “Spider” and “Odessa” escape networks and the surprising truth about the world's most legendary Nazi hunter Simon Wiesenthal. From its haunting chronicle of the monstrous mass murders the Nazis perpetrated and the murky details of their postwar existence to the challenges of hunting them down, Hunting Evil is a monumental work of nonfiction written with the pacing and intrigue of a thriller.

Francis Nenik's thrilling slice of narrative non-fiction "Journey through a Tragicomic Century" is about the life of the forgotten writer Hasso Grabner, told with great joy in language and love of absurdity. The journey takes us from the Young Communists in 1920s Leipzig to wartime Corfu, with Grabner falling from steelworks director to a vilified author banned from publishing his work in the GDR. Francis Neniks "Reise durch ein tragikomisches Jahrhundert" handelt vom Leben des vergessenen Schriftstellers Hasso Grabner — erzählt mit großer Freude am Fabulieren und Liebe zur Absurdität. Die Reise führt uns nebst anderen Stationen von den Jungen Kommunisten Leipzigs in den 1920er Jahren nach Korfu, ganz nah begleiten wir Grabner auf seinem wilden Ritt vom Stahlwerksdirektor zum verunglimpften Autor, dem es verboten war, sein Werk in der DDR zu veröffentlichen.

Opfer, Täter oder Mitläufer? Die Gendarmen des steirischen Salzkammergutes nahmen in der NS-Zeit verschiedene Rollen ein. Wo lagen die Gründe für die divergierenden Entwicklungen? Welche persönlichen Verbindungen sind entstanden? Welche Auswirkungen hatte der Nationalsozialismus auf die Beamten vor, während und nach dem Zweiten Weltkrieg? "Am 13. März 1938 wurde Postenkommandant Revierinspektor Tarra in Schutzhaft genommen und dem Bezirksgericht Gröbming eingeliefert. Im Postenrayon herrschte vollkommene Ruhe und Ordnung. Die Bevölkerung war in einem Freudentaumel." "In Bad Aussee wurde eine SS-Truppe am 13. Mai 1945 von der Freiheitsbewegung unter Leitung des Sicherheitskommissärs, Gendarmerie-Major Tarra, entwaffnet und in ein Lager eingewiesen. Somit war der letzte Teil österreichischen Bodens von den Deutschen gesäubert und konnte der Aufbau Österreichs beginnen." Diese Chronik-Einträge der Posten Bad Aussee (1938) und Mitterndorf (1945) spiegeln viele Aspekte der gegenständlichen Forschungen wider. Genau 7 Jahre und 2 Monate lagen zeitlich zwischen dem "Anschluss im Freudentaumel" und der "Säuberung von den Deutschen und dem Beginn des Aufbaus Österreichs." Mit Kommandant Tarra werden die Entwicklungen auch auf die persönliche Ebene heruntergebrochen, er steht hier stellvertretend für die untersuchten Exekutivbeamten und die unterschiedlichen persönlichen Entwicklungen in der NS-Zeit.
