|  | | A Good Soldier
At the end of the Second World War Lieutenant-General Erich von Schellendorf of the German General Staff is exhausted by the collapse of every aspect of his life. Disturbed that he could not moderate the destruction of Germany, his only compensation is that he has survived Hitler's war. In going forward he must ultimately answer his own conscience, and face his personal ghosts.
A Good Soldier is an easy read. It follows the difficult post-war recovery of a man whose allegiances are deeply intermixed between his English origins and his life as a German officer in the most destructive war in history. Now British Military Intelligence want his inside knowledge of the Nazi war, Winston Churchill wants him to work against the imminent Communist onslaught, German conspirators want him to help secretly plan the new German army, and the Americans want him as a presumptive war criminal. In managing these opposing demands he must also seek balance and commitment betwee | |  | | The English General
A war story, a double love story, and a compelling ride through World War Two told from the "other side".
