Germany 1944 - The British Soldier's Pocketbook
The National Archives | 2006 | ISBN: 1903365910 | English | 100 pages | PDF | 106 MB


A facsimile reprint of the original pocketbook issued to servicemen entering Nazi Germany in 1944. Part practical guide, part propaganda tool, it is an absorbing window on an uncertain time. Today's reader will find here opinionated comment and crude stereotype, but also subtle insights and humour. An illuminating introduction reveals the intelligence community's misgivings about the book, and Sir Charles Wheeler provides a vivid personal memoir.
