The volume shows the soldiers and describes their decisive deeds to which they owe their high distinction. The book explains how they succeeded in overcoming normal human inhibitions to dare the last. In text and pictures, the personal data of the highly decorated men are in part considerably expanded by exhaustive information on their military careers and their front-line missions within the framework of the respective unit, so that a very comprehensive picture of the lives and deaths of the Knight's Cross bearers in their sacrificial missions has emerged. However, it is not only a book about the Knight's Cross bearers of the Waffen-SS, but at the same time a documentation of all former SS units in which these men served. After being out of print for a long time, the book is now finally available in a 5th, updated edition.
