Patton was a remarkable tactician who almost single-handedly trained America's first generation of desert warriors. He conquered Sicily and led his Third Army in breathtaking triumph across Europe, pausing only to transform defeat into victory at the Battle of the Bulge. But Patton was also the most controversial general in U.S. history. A cavalryman steeped in romantic military tradition, he nevertheless pulled a conservative and reluctant American military into the most advanced realms of highly mobile armored warfare. An autocratic snob, he created an unparalleled rapport with even the lowliest private in his command. An exuberantly profane man, he prayed daily and believed God had destined him for miltray greatenness. A profoundly insecure individual, he made his Third Army the most self-confident and consistently victorious fighting force in the European theater.
With gripping prose and startling insight, Alan Axelrod's new biography illuminates the man behind the legend, a warrior who modernized the technology and tactics of the U.S. Army and developed the timeless leadership strategies that have inspired generations. |
