Which SS Generals biographies should be published?
Are there any high ranking SS members biographies that the forum would like to see published? There are men from the Third Reich who must have had interesting careers and I would like to read about them. A book dedicated to them entirely which gives in-depth info about their lives and actions.
I would like to see one on perhaps Gottlob Berger and Franz Xaver Schwarz. There are many more to list.

Jeckeln would be in my list also Phil as I can find very little on him! Phillip Bouhler would also be one for me.

An example of a quality book done on a member of the Third Reich which was not fully covered beforehand was the Karl Brandt book by Ulf Schmidt. I read it a few months back and it was great, very detailed and interesting. More of the same please!

I would love a Kurt Daluege bio Mark and I should check out the current ones on Müller avaliable.
James there is a book in German titled "Zwangsarbeit und Vernichtung: Das Wirtschaftsimperium der SS: Oswald Pohl und das SS-Wirtschafts-Verwaltungshauptamt 1933 - 1945". I think it will contain good info on Pohl and the camps under his administration but i'm afraid I can't speak German.
Can I also add Theodor Eicke and August Eigruber to my list.

Re: Which SS Generals biographies should be published?
I Think another good one would be Bruno Streckenbach with his career in the SD and RSHA as an Amtschef, Einsatzgruppen Commander in Poland and Waffen-SS Divisional Commander as well as Ritterkreuzträger.

The Wolff biography was written by Jochen von Lang...it is not as good as the Brandt book but I would say it is ok.....there are couple of books about K.H.Frank - however all of them are in czech.

Re: Which SS Generals biographies should be published?
Hi,
I am not sure if this goes to the ranks of generals, but as far as I see it is a rank of Brigadier General. I would say Dr. Oskar Dirlewanger. He had a very strange character, and a long career since Condor Legion. He was sadistic, but at the same time brave (or grazy) at battle field. It would be interesting to have a profesional psychoanalist working with the author.
I wonder if there is already a biography about him.
Cheers
