This book is the first one studying in detail the commemorative medals created by both Germans and Spaniards in recognition of the important contribution to the German war effort on the Eastern Front of the Spanish volunteers, which was quite disproportionate in relation to its size. The first part will guide the reader into the historical context in which these medals were conceived, followed in detail by the regulations and decrees that originated them, their design, their different manufacturers and identifiable features, their concession documents and their distribution.
