The Rommel Papers The Rommel
Papers are the compilation of Field Marshal Erwin Rommel's field notes
written throughout World War Two and carefully compiled after his death by
acclaimed writer and military theorist B. H. Liddell-Hart. The resulting
masterpiece is a credit to both Rommel and Liddell-Hart. Rommel, also known as
The Desert Fox, was a keen and meticulous observer, with an ability to
drive men to their best efforts which was legendary even before his assignment
to the future Afrika Korps. It was under his hands-on leadership that the
Afrika Korps became a world famous formation, and readers will be taken on a
personal tour through the campaigns which Rommel fought. From the push to Sedan
at the beginning of the 1940 campaign in France to his all night drive along an
enemy troop column in the Libyan desert, you will experience what Rommel
experienced and gain a personal knowledge of the deep concerns he showed for
his men and officers, and even for his enemies. His professionalism without
hatred comes through again and again. By the end of the book, you will be
pleading for his life as you read the inevitable.
