Rommel & his army retreated to the mts of Tunisia to regroup with other German divisions. He gained ground in Feb, then lost his nerve & withdrew to the south, where he took a drubbing from the UK. Devastated he flew to Berlin to ask Hitler to pull out of N Africa, & was put on sick leave. Without their leader, Germ forces still inflicted damage, especially among inexperienced US troops. But improved Sherman tanks with 75-mm guns helped neutralize the Panzers.

"Now if you are going to win any battle you have to do one thing. You have to make the mind run the body. Never let the body tell the mind what to do. The body will always give up.

George Patton's troops when they liberated the Buchenwald concentration camp. Forty-three thousand people had been murdered there.

My reason for recommending it is my belief that only through first-hand knowlege of the ideas of this almost indiscribably terrible man can we get some understanding of 20th Century history. It should be read in its original German; translations lose many of the book's affective connotations.  This copy was dedicated to the Huntington Library by General George Patton.
