Of the leaders of the American Army in World War II, Jacob Devers is undoubtedly the forgotten four star. Plucked from relative obscurity in the Canal Zone, Devers was one of four generals selected by General of the Army George Marshall in 1941 to assist him in preparing the Army for war. He quickly became known in Army circles for his can do attitude and remarkable ability to cut through red tape. Among other duties, he was instrumental in transforming Ft. Bragg, then a small Army post, into a major training facility. As head of the armored force, Devers contributed to the development of a faster, more heavily armored tank, equipped with a higher velocity gun that could stand up to the more powerful German tanks, and helped to turn American armor into an effective fighting force. In spring 1943, Devers replaced Dwight Eisenhower as commander of the European Theater of Operations, then was given command of the 6th Army Group that invaded the south of France and fought its way through France and Germany to the Austrian border. In the European campaign to defeat Hitler, Eisenhower had three subordinate army group commandersBritish Field Marshall Bernard Montgomery, Omar S. Bradley, and Jacob Devers. The first two are wellknownhere the third receives the attention he properly deserves.

This book about General Jacob Devers is a must for anyone interested in WWII. I love how it uncovers lesser-known aspects of his career. The writing keeps you engaged, and the details really bring history to life.

Disappointed with the lack of depth
I expected more from this biography of General Jacob Devers. It felt rushed in parts and didn’t delve deeply enough into his strategies or decisions. Not terrible, but I was hoping for something more substantial.

Well-written and enlightening
This book about General Devers opened my eyes to his role in WWII. The author did a fantastic job of weaving in historical context without losing the narrative. Glad to have picked this one up!

Interesting but a bit dry at times
I found the book on General Devers intriguing, but some sections felt a bit lengthy. The historical details are solid, but I sometimes struggled to keep my interest. Worth reading for history fans, just be prepared for a slower pace.

Not as engaging as I hoped
I had high expectations for this biography of General Jacob Devers, but it didn’t quite hold my attention. It covers important events, but I wish it had more personal anecdotes. Still, it's a decent read for military history enthusiasts.
