Knight's Cross: A Life of Field Marshal Erwin Rommel,Used
Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
In any numbering of the great captains of history, the name of Erwin Rommel must stand in the first rank. He was the outstanding Axis field commander of the Second World War, and was respected, even admired, as well as feared by his opponents. Here was a supremely professional solder: chivalrous, decent, untainted by the crimes of the Nazi regime, carrying out his duty with often dazzling success.David Fraser's booksurely the definitive studybrings to Rommel's career not only the perceptions of an acclaimed biographer, but those of a distinguished soldier too: his insights into Rommel's mind and methods carry the authority of experience. He shows how inspiringly spontaneous and superficially haphazard Rommel's style of leadership could be. His hallmarks were boldness of manoeuvre, ferocity in attack, and tenacity in pursuit. These were the qualities he displayed in his great battles in the North African desert; they were evident from his earliest battles in the First World War to his last, defending Fortress Europe from the Allied invasion of 1944.This is, first and foremost, a biography of a soldier. But Rommel reached a position in which he almost inevitably became embroiled in politics. When he realized that the Allied invasion was going to succeed, he realized also that the only way to save Germany was somehow to negotiate a peace settlement. He tried to present Hitlerto whom he had always been devoted, and who had always shown him a particular respect and affectionwith the military realities: he was branded a defeatist and ignored. But his opinions, and his apparent links with the Stauffenberg plotters of July 1944one of them, under interrogation, mentioned Rommel as a possible head of postHitlerian Germanycondemned him in the eyes of the Fhrer he had served so loyally. He was offered the choice of trial by a People's Courta sham of courseor suicide, a state funeral and protection for his family. He chose the latter.
