| Description: |
This title explains the context of the vicious civil war that raged in Yugoslavia following the German invasion of 1941. It shows the importance of Tito and his partisans, who were a constant thorn in the side of the German divisions in the Balkans. |
| Synopsis: |
The civil war that raged in Yugoslavia following the German invasion in 1941 was brutal, uncompromising and complex, pitting royalists, fascists communists, ethnic groups, and the Axis powers against one another in a shifting and bloody theatre of war. The Partisan forces under the command of Josip Broz Tito were a constant thorn in the side of the Wehrmacht divisions in the Balkans, prompting numerous anti-partisan operations and even daring Fallschirmjager raids aimed at assassinating him. Using primary source material, stunning contemporary images and many personal accounts, this book explores a well-known but little published subject for the first time, bringing to light the development, training, weaponry, tactics and combat experiences of Tito's formidable guerrilla force, and the events of this bloody theatre of World War II. |
