This is a pictorial record of one of the most successful land forces ever assembled, and of the charismatic leader, General Patton, who inspired it. The book charts the Third Army’s progress across Europe to the heart of Hitler’s empire, through contemporary illustration from both sides of the fighting and informed commentary. The reader is taken with Patton and his men on their sweep through France, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany and Austria with the diverse photography of an army at work.
