Abstract "U-Boat Commander Oskar Kusch: Anatomy of a Nazi-Era Betrayal and Judicial Murder is the first work of English language scholarship on the history of a German naval officer in World War II whose hatred of the Nazis precipitated his loss of rank and eventual court-ordered murder. Pinned by his executive officer for sedition despite a sterling military record, the charges stuck and Oskar Kusch was executed following a court martial."-- Provided by publisher.
