More about the book
The book delves into the lives and careers of three distinguished German field marshals during World War II: Kesselring, Rommel, and Model. Kesselring, known as "Smiling Albert," was a skilled defensive strategist in Italy but was later convicted as a war criminal. Rommel, often shrouded in myth, displayed remarkable leadership but struggled with ambition and self-criticism. Model, a master of defensive battles, was less recognized due to his tough demeanor and challenges to Hitler's authority. Together, they illustrate the complexities of military leadership amid the war's chaos.
