Why read it?
1 author picked War As I Knew It as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
He was our greatest ground combat commander in World War II. I wanted to know why. So here is the story in the general’s own words. Most of the text comes from Patton’s wartime diary.

From Daniel's list on American combat leaders in World War II.
