Reviews
"The book is fundamentally a study of what Piepercalls the SS Cavalry Brigade's 'dual role' as both a political paramilitaryforce with ideological goals and as a conventional military unit. ... a detailedaccount of a Waffen SS unit with a complex history and a penetrating study ofhow this unit carried out numerous atrocities. ... Pieper has produced afascinating book of value to anyone studying the Holocaust, the SS or theEastern Front. Highly recommended."

Synopsis
Fegelein's Horsemen and Genocidal Warfare explores the deployment of the SS Cavalry Brigade in 1941-2, with a special focus on the development of its 'dual role'. The brigade became a pacemaker of the Holocaust in Belorussia during the summer of 1941, and fought against the Red Army in the region between Toropets and Rzhev, a focal point of the eastern front, between December, 1941 and June, 1942. SS cavalrymen underwent a continuous brutalisation which saw them commit acts of mass violence with thousands of victims, a development only comparable to that of the Einsatzgruppen and battalions of the order police. Going beyond a unit history, Henning Pieper analyses the role and behavior of the brigade's personnel and places it within the context of research on perpetrators and the operational history of the Waffen-SS. Thus, military history, Holocaust research, and perpetrator history are combined in this interdisciplinary approach., The SS Cavalry Brigade was a unit of the Waffen-SS that differed from other German military formations as it developed a 'dual role': SS cavalrymen both helped to initiate the Holocaust in the Soviet Union and experienced combat at the front.
