Life-long soldier and hero of two world wars, Serbian General Draza Mihailovic led Europe’s first organized military resistance against fascist occupier.

Announcing the posting of the book about great Serbian hero of two World Wars, General Draza Mihailovic, Andy Wilcoxson writes:

“I have recently come into the possession of a remarkable book published in Great Britain in 1947. The book is entitled "General Mihailovich: The World's Verdict" and it is a collection of newspaper articles about Draza Mihailovic and the Serbian Chetnik movement. Many of the articles contained in the book were written by the U.S. and British servicemen who were attached to Mihailovic's Chetnik units during the war.

“The book destroys the communist propaganda that Mihailovic was a Nazi collaborator and any fair-minded person who reads it will realize that Gen. Mihailovic's only crime was resisting the twin evils of Hitler's fascism and Stalin's communism.

“This book chronicles the shame of the Greatest Generation, and I am by no means attacking our World War II veterans when I say that. To their credit, our servicemen were ashamed that America and Britain sold-out Yugoslavia to the communists. These honorable men were outraged that we stood idly by while the communists captured and executed our ally who "found Yugoslavia's soul" and raised the first rebellion against the Nazis in Europe. The Greatest Generation did speak out against the injustice done to Mihailovic and the Serbian nation, and the things they said are contained in the pages of this book.

“Because the book is out of print and the publisher went out of business more than 50 years ago copies of it are hard to come by, so I scanned my copy, and through the magic of the Internet you can download your own copy of the book in PDF format by right clicking this link and selecting "Save Target As" (please note file is 137 MB).

“P.S.: To all of the Albanians, Muslims, and Croats who have taken the time to write me e-mails over the years calling me a "Chetnik" I thank you for bestowing such an honorable title on me. The mere fact that you think calling someone a Chetnik is an insult has done a tremendous amount to convince me of the rightness of the Serbian cause.”
