Produktinformationen zu „Hitler's Asian Adventure 2 / Hitlers Asian Adventure 2 Bd.2 (ePub)“
57 years ago, Horst H. Geerken first encountered
rumours about the German Navys activities in Indonesia. He was told about them by Indonesian freedom fighters who had defended their country`s freedom when Dutch forces returned after the end of the Second World War. During the 18 years he spent working in Indonesia, Geerken made further researches into the subject, and even after that he regularly returned to research in the region. This enabled the author to demonstrate that the activities of the German forces in Asia were considerably more extensive and intensive than had previously been assumed.
Volumes 1 and 2 of this documentary history contained a great deal of previously unknown information about a subject which had previously been ignored by historians. Very shortly after the publication of those volumes, the author received an immense amount of correspondence from people who had either themselves been involved in events in Asia during the Second World War, or whose fathers, grandfathers or husbands had been. These two volumes have since been published in slightly abridged form as one volume in English, as has a Bahasa Indonesian abridgement.
The current third volume (English Volume 2) contains much more information resulting from Geerkens research. It all stems either from contemporary witnesses or from archives in Europe, Australia and Indonesia, as well as the few diaries that still survive from the Second World War and the internment of German civilians in the Dutch East Indies and British India.
