Insight into a little-known aspect of World War II,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: War North Of 80: The Last German Arctic Weather Station Of World War II (Northern Lights) (Hardcover)
War North Of 80: The Last German Arctic Weather Station Of World War II is the firsthand account of Wilhelm Dege, leader of the last of the weather stations set up in the farthest reaches of the Arctic during World War II. It was not until well after the death of Hitler and the end of his regime that the Allies sent a ship northward to retrieve Dege and his crew, making their team the last German troops to surrender. War North Of 80 presents a skillfully rendered English translation of Dege's journal, enhanced with appendices on the post-war careers of the men who faced the harsh rigors of the Arctic alongside Dege. A profoundly fascinating insight into a little-known aspect of World War II military history.
