In March 1943, in their first fight with the Germans, American soldiers in North Africa were pushed back 50 miles by Rommel’s Afrika Korps and nearly annihilated. Only the German decision not to pursue them allowed the Americans to maintain a foothold in the area. General Eisenhower, the supreme commander, knew he needed a new leader on the ground, one who could raise the severely damaged morale of his troops. He handed the job to a new man: Lieutenant General George Patton.

Slow to start but interesting subject and information. As much or more about the military units, the soldiers and leaders involved in the campaign in Tunisia as Patton. Unique approach in describing both the American and German soldiers experiences. Some of the descriptions of the effects and wounds are quite graphic. It is clear that the American armor was inferior to the German equipment. It seems this was especially true of the M3 tank destroyers.
