    Mit Rommel in Afrika

    A narrative history of the North African campaign in World War II that follows the operations, battles and daily realities of the Afrika Korps under Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, combining operational accounts of engagements such as Tobruk, Gazala and El Alamein with descriptions of desert tactics, supply problems and soldierly life; it relies on wartime records, memoirs and interviews to present both strategic analysis and vivid anecdotes, while reflecting a largely sympathetic, sometimes romanticized portrayal of the German commanders and their troops.
