  SS Standartenfuhrer Jochen Peiper, Ace Commander! Panzer Regiment SS Leibstandarte
Jochen Peiper was a single-minded soldier, professional in the truest sense, the quintessence of the craftsman in the way he devoted to the progress of a technique and capable of understanding the passion of pure craftsmanship.
Peiper remained pre-eminent as a leader on the battlefield and testified to his resilience, resourcefulness, and mental agility to his accounts for his amazing---and it was amazing---success as a leader of men in battle.
Jochen Peiper was always faced with a situation, and responded with an act of bravery, far beyond that normally expected of a soldier, and was a worthy winner of Germany’s highest gallantry awards.

 Second World War Books: Review
All in all, Jochen Peiper is reminiscent of another of Agte's "mega" biographies, Michael Wittmann, the English edition of which was also published by Fedorowicz.
Inevitably, given the accusations (and conviction) for which Peiper is most remembered and his unfortunate murder, the bulk of the last seventy pages of Agte's book are devoted not to Peiper and his troops in combat, but to Peiper in court, in prison, in France after his release from custody, and in death.
Jochen Peiper can be considered, without question, representative of the best in German soldiers and as a servant to his people.

The title suggests this is a biography of J. Peiper, in fact it only examines Peiper and the Malmedy incident in any detail, and most of the details come from Whiting's own imagination.
