Not a bad read. Fairly quick, I rather enjoyed the portrayel pf Patton but sometime O'Reilly just adds a snide comment at the end of a chapter that really have no place in this book. One of the main issues I have about this book is it is a book about Patton yet there are a few chapters where the authors go away from the subject matter and they really do not add to his story. I am not saying they are not interesting but he seems pre-occupied with the Russian invasion of Germany and the raping that went on. Again these were terrble acts but what did Patton do about it?

I did enjoy this book but it was not the best book about WWII that I have read.
