Notes from Stone & Stone

Not so much a true biography as a history of the commanders and operations opposing Patton. It would have been easy to manufacture a superficial, derivative account of those campaigns from the plethora of existing books on the topic, but Yeide seems to have done some significant digging into original sources to produce a praise-worthy exposition about what was happening on the Axis side of the front while Patton was trying to win the war with his ivory-handled pistols.
