Terry Brighton
The Masters Of Battle
Publisher: Penguin (March 2009)
Patton, Montgomery and Rommel – three of the most talented generals of the second world war. Montgomery and Patton were meant to be on each other’s side and yet loathed each other while at the same time both admired their enemy Rommel’s achievements.
Each general began the war by being their respective leader’s favorite and ended the war being despised by their leader. Each general ended up resenting their superiors while being worshipped by their own men.
But how did these men function? What motivated them and how did they interact with each other. In Masters of battle historian Terry Brighton takes us on a fascinating journey of discovery.
