Wow! An incredible book that helped this reader better understand the character of General Patton. My past point of reference was based on the negative publicity the media splashed across our eyes during this war. The authors helped me see inside this driven man whose patriotism was so strong that he spoke whatever he felt. When he thought a soldier was avoiding combat he said so in no uncertain terms and I cringed with that soldier. Yet his men loved him. He was an intelligent and intuitive man who could outwit the enemy nearly every time. When he didn't it appeared that he was often outvoted by those above him. After reading this novel, I can only say I admire the man who did so much for us and our country. If you read this novel, perhaps you, too, will discover similar feelings. As to whether or not his death was an accident or not, we will probably never know. All reports about the crash have disappeared probably forever.
