Hitler's White Russians: Collaboration, Extermination, and Anti-Partisan Warfare in Belorussia, 1941-1944. 1891227424. By Dr. Oleg Romanko & Antonio Munoz. Oversized, hard cover, 512 pages, color cover, hundreds upon hundreds of black & white and color maps, line drawings, tables, charts, orders of battle, numerous detailed appendices. The following book review was written by Academic author, Colonel French L. MacLean regarding this work:

As an author, who has written five books on the German army and Waffen-SS, I applaud this latest effort by Antonio Munoz and Dr. Oleg Romanko on Hitler's White Russians. In all aspects, this work has set the standard for information on collaboration, extermination and anti-partisan warfare in Byelorussia during World War II. In short, the book is fabulous. First, the book is extremely high-quality in it's production. The 500 pages, on glossy stock, make the photographs and maps jump out in superb detail. I've spent roughly twenty years researching World War II archives in four countries, and three-quarters of the photographs in the book are ones I had never seen before! From action photographs during combat operations, to close-ups of key leaders, the book could stand alone among related works for the photographs alone. But there is much more. The maps, many of which are in color, are easy to follow, and include depictions of every major anti-partisan campaign in the area. Equally as informative are the dozens of order of battle charts and tables that go into superb detail of German army, police, SS and indigenous forces that participated in these operations. The authors' writing styles are easy to read, and their use of footnotes, from hundreds of sources, show that they have left no stone unturned in their effort to get the complete story of what happened in this little-known theater of the war. Everything is here; you need nothing else to understand what happened. This is not some puff-piece that glosses over the facts. It is an extremely scholarly work, but one written in a style that is reader-friendly. I salute the authors for their wonderful effort. Mr. Munoz succeeded in producing a fabulous book. I suspect I will be consulting it for my own writing efforts for years to come.

The Druzhina SS Brigade: A History, 1941-1943. 1891227319. By Antonio Munoz. Perfect bound, 96 pages, color covers with color plates, numerous maps, charts and tables. This is the history of the SD-sponsored Drizhina brigade. The unit performed exceptionally well until about the beginning of 1943 when the unit's commander began planning the unit's defection to the communist partisans. The cadre German personnel in the unit were massacred and the bulk of the formation defected and was re-designated as the "1st Anti-Fascist Partisan Brigade". Some time in the fall of 1943, the SS and SD finally caught up to the formation during an anti-partisan drive in the Lepel region of central Russian and slaughtered to the last man. Before the unit's pragmatic Soviet commander was killed, a German SS officer reportedly shouted, "a dogs death for a dog." A GREAT VALUE for only $15.00 per copy!
