"Hitler and the Secret Alliance is a fantastic journey into the past and, to an extent, the present of the southern half of the Western Hemisphere. Almost everyone has been exposed to some aspects of World War I and II Germany and probably to a lesser extent, South America. However, only a few have delved deeply into the history of southern South America. Readers having an interest in and/or working knowledge of this area of world history from current sources will be amazed how this book puts incidents in perspective and makes the gaps in this history suddenly apparent. For example, the presence of German nationals and representatives of the German government in South America has always been more or less obvious to the public. The extent of this presence in terms of land ownership, businesses and manufacturing enterprises and the influence on countries such as Argentina as illustrated in this book will amaze even the knowledgeable reader.

The Norway Action - April 1940 Photographic Images of History.....a time of struggle, of honor and of the loss of an entire generation of young men, the end of a nation and the destruction of an entire continent. Naturally, this time was not all struggle, fighting and combat but in this volume, we see the photographic record of this pivotal action from the Heer (the German Army), the Kriegsmarine (the German Navy) and the Luftwaffe (the German Air Force). These photographs are a composite of the photo albums of German soldiers in each of these branches. As with young men in their country's military, especially in dangerous times of combat, struggle & death - they relaxed in many ways, many took photos. The photos were not only of their brothers in arms and the images of their life on the Front but also the photos they carried of loved ones at home. Join us in this photographic trip back in time that was difficult for the entire world; a time when life was today because tomorrow was never guaranteed.
