Kaigun: Strategy Tactics and Technology in the Imperial Japanese Navy 1887-1941

For Germany: The Otto Skorzeny Memoirs
San Jose Ca: R. James Bender 2005. 528 pages 248 photos. Otto Skorzeny only rose to the rank of Colonel in the SS yet is one of the best known and colorful figures of the Third Reich in large part because of the faith Hitler had in the tall Austrian engineer. Many books have been written about his career to include autobiographies but before he died in 1975 he personally entrusted Bender Publishing with the formidable task of producing the most detailed up-dated and best illustrated version of his incredible life story. A quarter of a century later after painstaking research into the text and a hunt for unpublished illustrations the ultimate story of "Scarface" Skorzeny "the most dangerous man in Europe" and Hitler"s "commando extraordinary" is finally available. Complete with an exhaustive index providing biographical details not found in the text this is likely to be the last word on this larger than life personality one of the great characters of World War II. First Edition. Illustrated Boards. Near Fine/No Jacket Issued. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. R. James Bender Hardcover
