* A highly detailed, full colour book exploring the iconic artefacts, uniforms and insignia which underpinned the concept and philosophy behind Hitler's Third Reich, particularly the Allgemeine-SS Formed in 1925 as a personal protection unit for Adolf Hitler, while under the control of Himmler, the Allgemeine-SS grew from a small paramilitary group to one of the most powerful, complex organisations in the Third Reich. Today the Allgemeine-SS is equally enigmatic as the vehicle by which Himmler proposed to implement his thesis to create a 'Centre of the New World'; however, its structure and psychology remains little-understood. By leading militaria specialists Ulric of England, Meine Ehre Heisst Treue extends deep inside the Allgemeine-SS to reveal an unsurpassed creativity and philosophy. From the iconic, black SS uniform designed by Prof. Karl Diebitsch, graphic designer Walter Heck and manufactured by Hugo Boss, to the applied arts, for example the 'first born' mother's brooch and Allach porcelain flower vase, this authoritative book presents the most distinguished Allgemeine-SS collection to date.
