This memoir follows a German soldier from his boyhood during the First World War into the years of the Second. It describes the hardships he faced on the front line and the grim realities of combat as the war turned against his country. The account builds to December 1942, when he was taken prisoner by the Red Army. Written as a first-hand record, it offers a personal view of a man caught up in events far larger than himself, and of the cruelty and chance that shaped his fate.
