Soldatisches Führertum (Soldiers' Leadership) was a ten-volume reference work in German, containing short biographies of generals in the Prussian Army by Kurt von Priesdorff.
From 1937 to 1942 only ten of Priesdorff's planned fifteen volumes were published by the Hanseatische Verlagsanstalt, based in Hamburg.
They contacted a publisher and found a new editor in the form of the military writer Hanns Möller-Witten, author of the 1935 Geschichte der Ritter des Ordens pour le mérite and several short biographies.
They were destroyed there in an air raid in April 1945, leaving Priesdorff's work as the most important source on the topic.
In 1980 the Militärgeschichtliches Institut of the DDR in Potsdam issued another register of the names in Priesdorff's volumes.
