The Eastern Front: Memoirs of a Waffen Ss Volunteer, 1941 - 1945

A gripping first-person memoir of soldierly sacrifice, heroism and fierce combat against numerically superior Soviet forces during World War II, by a charismatic Belgian writer and politician turned Waffen SS front-line infantryman. In a laudatory review appearing in an official US Army Department magazine, US Army Brigadier General John C. Bahnsen wrote: "The pace of the writing is fast; the action is graphic, and a warrior can learn things from reading this book. I recommend its reading by students of the art of war. It is well worth the price." Here is the epic story of the Walloon Legion, a volunteer Belgian unit of the World War II pan-European SS force, as told by the legendary figure whose unmatched frontline combat experience and literary talent made him the premier spokesman for his fallen comrades. Captures the grit, the terror and the glory of Europe's crusade against Communism in absorbing prose. Includes fascinating first-person descriptions of Hitler, Himmler and other Third Reich personalities. Degrelle vividly describes how he and his comrades endured danger, privation and torrents of shot and shell -- on the sun-baked steppes of Ukraine, at the foothills of the Caucasus, in the depths of bone-chilling winter, through the stinking mud and the flaming hell of Cherkassy, and across the rolling plains of Estonia and the Pomeranian lake country. You'll learn what moved the 35-year-old Degrelle -- a brilliant intellectual and his country's most colorful political leader -- to enlist as a private in the volun¬teer legion he himself organized to join with Third Reich Germany and its allies in their titanic fight against the Bolshevik enemy.

A frontline soldier from the Wallonian (French-speaking Belgian) volunteer Waffen-SS campaign on the Eastern Front during World War II provides a gripping, blood-drenched and shocking account of his part in the greatest land war in human history. From the opening days of the invasion of the Soviet Union, the drive to the Caucasus in 1942, the encirclement of the Cherkassy Pocket and the desperate fighting retreat across the Ukraine and the Baltics, this book recounts the awful cost paid by both sides in the war. Degrelle, leader of Belgium's Rexist party, volunteered as a private and eventually rose to one of the highest ranks ever held by a non-German in the Waffen-SS. This book is for anyone interested in the soldier's point of view from the frontline: a raw, bloody, uncensored and brutal account which provides a rare insight into the conflict and is guaranteed to leave the reader emotionally drained-and filled with hope that such a conflict may never again curse any European nation.

Hitler for a Thousand Years

Corrected second printing. Translated and introduced by Alexander Jacob. The sensational semi-autobiographical work from the Waffen-SS's most famous foreign volunteer, translated into English for the very first time. First published in French in French as Hitler pour 1000 ans in 1969, this suppressed work was Degrelle's personal account of his pre-war political career, his personal interactions with Hitler, the formation of what became the Walloon SS, the war on the Eastern Front against the Soviet Union, his dramatic escape to Spain in 1945, and his life in exile. Along the way, Degrelle provides insight into some of the most pressing questions of World War II: why Hitler invaded the Soviet Union when he did; how Mussolini's invasion of Greece wrecked Hitler's plans; how lower-ranking German military commanders deliberately disobeyed Hitler's orders on industrial production which directly affected the war's outcome; how the defeat at Stalingrad occurred because the Sixth Army's commander refused to follow Hitler's orders to break out to the west; the turning point battle of Kursk, and much more. Degrelle also provides a fascinating personal view of Hitler, gained from a personal friendship. Finally, Degrelle describes the vision of a united Europe, which, he says, was Hitler's ultimate vision. This belief in a strong united Europe gave rise to the saying of Hitler for a thousand years, the title of this book. "If objective historians still existed, I could be for them a very valuable witness with regard to their documents. Who, among the survivors of 1945, knew Hitler or Mussolini more directly than I? Who could explain with more precision than me, explain what type of men they were, men as they really were? "This 'essential thing' in the great tragedy of the Second World War, what was it for us? How did the 'fascisms' -- which have been the essential thing of our lives -- arise? How were they deployed ? How did they collapse? And, above all, after a quarter century: what balance sheet can one draw up of this whole gigantic affair?"

Tintin, mon copain (French Edition)

Cent quatre-vingts millions d'albums de Tintin circulent à travers le monde. Ils sont publiés en plus de quarante-cinq langues. Que ce soit à New York ou à Tokyo, des milliards de téléspectateurs se régalent en assistant aux émissions des séries inspirées par les chefs d'oeuvre Tintinesques. Ces records triomphaux, toujours croissants, ne se discutent mème plus.Mais son progéniteur, le dessinateur Hergé, d'où est-il sorti ? Qui l'a tenu sur les fonts baptismaux, le matin de sa naissance ?Et bien, voilà ! Hergé est, avant tout, né des oeuvres d'un curé ! C'est bien un prètre catholique qui a extrait du néant ce petit bonhomme futé. Ce prètre s'appelait Norbert Wallez. Tintin a eu d'ailleurs plusieurs pères. C'est le fruit dudit abbé, bien sûr; ce l'est, en second lieu, du grand artiste Hergé, lui-mème, brandissant ses crayons. Et, indirectement, c'est de moi, Léon Degrelle ! Imaginez le scandale ! Degrelle, le « fasciste » ! Celui qui fut le « candidat-dictateur » de la Belgique peu après les débuts artistiques de Hergé ! Pire encore ce Degrelle, on l'a assez répété, Hitler aurait voulu l'avoir pour fils ! C'est tout vous dire ! Quel arbre généalogique ! Grands dieux !Nous voilà bien mal partis dans notre étude sur les origines du futur explorateur Tintin dans l'U.R.S.S. de Staline, chez les crocodiles du Congo, ou parmi les bouddhistes à robe Jaune du Siam et du Tibet !
