The first soldier : Hitler as military leader

Fritz, Stephen G., 1949-2020
Books
After Germany's humiliating World War II defeat, numerous German generals published memoirs claiming that their country's brilliant military leadership had been undermined by the Führer's erratic decision making. The author of three highly acclaimed books on the era, Stephen Fritz upends this characterisation of Hitler as an ill-informed fantasist and demonstrates the ways in which his strategy was coherent and even competent.
