Reviews
"A suitable companion to Stephen E. Ambrose's Citizen Soldiers.... The book gives readers an appreciation of the tenacity of the German soldier. * Armor *
A fascinating account, from the German point of view, of what went wrong in the Normandy campaign. * Associated Press *
An excellent account of Rommel's engineering and tactical accomplishments during the last few months of his life, from the end of 1943 to his involuntary suicide in 1944. * Publishers Weekly *
A well-balanced examination.... Mitcham shows how Rommel executed one of his most brilliant campaigns in defending France with next to no reinforcements or resupply.... A worthy study that should interest all readers. * Library Journal *
Mitcham weaves a fascinating story of heroic striving by Rommel, and by his German troops, to overcome time and German senior mismanagement. This book would be a valuable addition to any collection of works on World War II, both for its masterful coverage of Axis military organizational, operational, and tactical activities, as well as for its excellent minibiographies of important German military and naval officers. They alone are sufficient reason to acquire this book. * Journal of Military History *
