The book covers the first two years of existence and combat activities of the German 11th Panzer Division (Pz.Div.11.) during its finest period - in 1941, when fought at Balkans and in Russia. From the moment of its creation, it was a famous division, fame that grew from combat. It was one of the few divisions to have its own nickname – Gespenter Division (The Ghost Division) and to have its own unofficial emblem – the Ghost – painted on its vehicles alongside the official OKW approved emblem of a yellow, vertically bisected circle.
