Product Information

Terror Flyers examines the "lynch justice" ( Lynchjustiz ) committed against American airmen in Nazi Germany during World War II. Using engaging first-person accounts of downed pilots, as well as previously unused primary sources, Terror Flyers challenges the notion that such lynchings were exclusively the domain of Nazi party officials and soldiers. New evidence reveals ordinary German people executed Lynchjustiz as well. Initially occurring as a spontaneous reaction to the devastation of the Allied air campaign against the cities of the Third Reich, Lynchjustiz offered the Nazi regime a unique propaganda opportunity to harness the outrage of the German population. Fueled by inspiration from America's own history of the lynching of African Americans, Nazi propaganda exploited the very same imagery found in US publications to escalate the anger of the German people. Drawing heavily on the accounts of the downed airmen themselves, testimonies from the "flyer trials" held in Dachau during 1945?48, and rarely seen Nazi propaganda, Terror Flyers offers a new narrative of this previously overlooked aspect of the Allied campaign in Europe and suggests that at least 3,000 cases of lynch justice likely occurred between 1943 and 1945.

Reviews
Terror Flyers brings to light a less-known history and integrates a psycho-social analysis of Germany's Nazis, both civilian and official, and the dastardly punishment they meted out to several downed Allied flyers by ignoring their injuries, physically assaulting them, and then simply killing them., " Terror Flyers offers a wealth of important information that is not available in any single other published source. The appendices alone will be worth the price of the book to serious students of aerial warfare and World War II. Of special value is the discussion of the additional threats faced by downed African-American airmen, and the basis of the Third Reich's propaganda campaign targeting them, which skillfully exploited the injustices faced by African-Americans at the time in their own country."--David T. Zabecki, Author of The Generals' War "Kevin Hall's book on downed American airmen in World War Two is a path-breaking accomplishment. It not only uncovers a subject of hitherto very limited research, it makes chilling reading about the air war and the humane and often inhumane actions of the German population and Allied airmen."--Eric A. Johnson, Central Michigan University "Although in the public eye during the war, the terrible mistreatment of Allied flyers by Germans has largely disappeared from the memory of the war and the literature on it. Here is a very fine and thought-provoking account of a practice that not only cost many American and British flyers their lives but illuminates aspects of the descent into the gutter of far too many Germans in history's greatest conflict."--Gerhard L. Weinberg, William Rand Kenan Jr. Professor Emeritus, University of North Carolina "The fact that American and British airmen were occasionally lynched by German civilians and policemen is well known but the scale and nature of the killings has remained uncertain and speculative. Here for the first time Kevin Hall has successfully reconstructed that traumatic experience and the motives and methods that led to murder. This is a corner of the story of 'total war' in which the boundary between military and civilian became so blurred that civilians could take matters into their own hands. Hall's account is the richest that we have on this grim phenomenon."--Richard Overy, University of Exeter, author of The Bombers and the Bombed "In Terror Flyers , military historian Kevin Hall (Ruhr-Universität Bochum) offers a well researched and detailed study of incidents of Lynchjustiz (lynch justice) against US airmen in Nazi Germany during World War II. Earlier literature long ago identified the violence against some US Air Corps crew members who were forced to bail out over Germany. Hall uses several new sources to prove the number of such cases was much larger than previously thought, with a focus on the culpability of both civilians and the National Socialist regime"-- Michigan War Studies Review " Terror Flyers brings to light a less-known history and integrates a psycho-social analysis of Germany's Nazis, both civilian and official, and the dastardly punishment they meted out to several downed Allied flyers by ignoring their injuries, physically assaulting them, and then simply killing them."--Sheldon Goldberg, H-TGS, In Terror Flyers , military historian Kevin Hall (Ruhr-Universität Bochum) offers a well researched and detailed study of incidents of Lynchjustiz (lynch justice) against US airmen in Nazi Germany during World War II.
