Two men came to personify generalship in the Second World War: Bernard Montgomery for the British and Erwin Rommel for the Germans.
In the span of a few short years, they fought a series of extraordinary duels across several theaters of war. Ever since, historians have assessed their outstanding leadership, personalities, and skill. Monty and Rommel is the first comparative biography written of these two extraordinary soldiers. It explores how each was "made" by their war leaders, Churchill and Hitler, and how the thoughts of both permeate down to today's armies.Buy Monty and Rommel: Parallel Lives by Peter Caddick-adams from Australia's Online Independent Bookstore, BooksDirect.
