Patton's path to victory
In March 1943, in their first fight with the Germans, American soldiers in North Africa were pushed back fifty miles by Erwin Rommel’s Afrika Korps and nearly annihilated. General Eisenhower knew he needed a new leader on the ground. He gave the job to Lieutenant General George Patton.
Charismatic, impulsive, and inspiring, Patton possessed a massive ego and the ambition to match. He had just ten days to whip his dispirited troops into shape, then throw them into battle against the Wehrmacht’s terrifying Panzers, the powerful German tanks that US forces had never defeated.
Patton's Payback is the thrilling story of how the legendary leader reinvigorated a demoralized army corps, and how his men claimed victory over General Rommel.
