His personal accounts of military tactics; his reaction to victory and defeat on the battlefield; his political dealing with other allied commanders and politicos; and his relationship with his own stafff- including the colourful and contriversial George S Patton- are just some of the areas the reader is exposed to in this comprehensive work.
