Following the defeat of Nazi Germany, the SS was declared a criminal organization at the Nuremberg Trials in 1946.This book features chapters on Heinrich Himmler, The Knight of the Long Knives, The Waffen SS, The Holocaust, The SS in Retreat, Nuremberg and ODESSSA, the organization of former SS members.
