Présentation de l'éditeur

Hitler: Military Commander examines how a non-German former corporal managed to take personal control of an army imbued with Prussian traditions, to appoint, sack and sentence to death its generals, to lead it into a world war for which it was unprepared and, ultimately, to destroy it. It examines Hitler's key military decisions during the Second World War, assesses how far these decisions were militarily justified in light of the intelligence available at the time and provides a fascinating insight into Hitler's relationships with his generals, revealing to what extent his grasp of military strategy was shaped by his personality.
