Contrary to conventional views, Rigg reveals that a startlingly large number
of German military men were classified by the Nazis as Jews or
"partial-Jews" (Mischlinge), in the wake of racial laws first enacted in the
mid-1930s. Rigg demonstrates that the actual number was much higher than
previously thought--perhaps as many as 150,000 men, including decorated
veterans and high-ranking officers, even generals and admirals.
