The book's title is "Killing Patton", but Bill and Martin bring this book to life in highlighting the final days of Gen George Patton.
I love the format In which Bill and Martin assemble and present the historical facts outlined in this book and I can honestly say that I am still skeptical that Gen Patton was murdered. That being said, let's get to the review.
As usual, Bill and Martin bring to life the events of the time. I often felt like I was right there with the soldiers as they fought the battles. The detailed photos, maps and charts helped me to understand exactly what was going on during many of the battles fought.
The book is an easy read and it was hard for me to put it down, once I began reading.
I gave it 5 stars because it was that good.
Why can't high school history books be written like this? If they had been, I am sure that I would have done better in my High School History classes. :-)
