Hitlers Heralds : The Story of the Freikorps 1918-1923

xii + 275pp., b/w pls., maps, appends., bibliog., index, Reactionary Nationalist organisations largely composed of old front-fighters, quietly supported by allied nations after WWI whose brutal role in Silesia, the Polish War & the rape of Latvia was a warning of future German / Nazi ambitions & behaviour. Very selective history; one single reference to Albert Leo Schlageter. Worthwhile for the comprehensive appendix of Freikorps units, strengths & leaders
