Editorial Reviews

The Second World War produced an outstanding array of great Allied military commanders, perhaps none so highly regarded as General Omar N. Bradley and General George S. Patton. From North Africa to the great battlefields of Europe, their combined genius and courage helped steer our nation through one of its greatest challenges... the Second World War. This video combines authentic military footage, painstakingly researched from a multitude of sources, with expert commentary by General John S. D. Eisenhower to create a vivid and accurate portrait of these two great leaders. From Patton's fast, hard-hitting Third Army's drive across France to Bradley's expert military leadership on D-Day to the total defeat of Germany, every critical juncture is examined and explained. Top Command... "Bradley and Patton" also depicts the contrasting personalities of these two distinguished men: Bradley, soft-spoken and humble, performing without glamour and fanfare; Patton, the more colorful of the two, headstrong by nature and fearlessly aggressive. Finally, this extraordinary presentation culminates with a glimpse of Bradley's role in post-war world affairs and Patton's victory speech and accidental death only four months after the war ended. This rare collector's video will be a treasured volume in your military history library.
