This review is from: Hitler's Generals (Hardcover)
Published in 1976, this book came out about the same time as the infamous "World at War" Series. With 248 pages, there is adequate room to explore each of the leading Germand Generals that served Hitler in WWII. 21 Generals in all are discussed, with analysis of each as well as discussion of what went right or wrong on each front of the War.
The book has ample photographs of the weapon systems, maps most in B&W, but some in color. The author does not sugar coat the assessments of each general but provides facts and data to support what made them effective or not. In the end of course, Hitler has to take the lion's share of the blame. This book focuses on the military aspects of the regeime, not the evilness of the Nazi philosphy. In many ways, this is a primer, since so many facets of the war are covered, yet it is a good summary of the topic, enough material to satisfied the curious and not so overwhelming as to turn others away.
