Note:Patton's War examines General George S. Patton Jr.'s leadership during World War II. The first volume covers Patton from the beaches of Morocco to the fields of France, right before the birth of the Third Army on the continent. The second volume picks up with General George S. Patton assuming command of the U.S. Third Army, tracing his contributions to the Normandy and Brittany campaigns, and ending with his army's rescue of Bastogne in the Battle of the Bulge. --Adapted from publisher.
