War As I Knew It（ISBN=9780395735299） 免费 下载 115盘 pdf txt mobi caj lit

　　Adored by many, loathed by some, General George S. Patton,

Jr., was one of the most brilliant military strategists in history.

War As I Knew It is the personal and candid account of his

celebrated, relentless crusade across western Europe during World

War II. First published in 1947, this absorbing narrative draws on

Patton's vivid memories of battle and his detailed diaries, from

the moment the Third Army exploded onto the Brittany Peninsula to

the final Allied casualty report. The result is not only a

grueling, human account of daily combat and heroic feats -

including a riveting look at the Battle of the Bulge - but a

valuable chronicle of the strategies and fiery personality of a

legendary warrior. Patton's letters from earlier military campaigns

in North Africa and Sicily, complemented by a powerful

retrospective of his guiding philosophies, further reveal a man of

uncompromising will and uncommon character, which made "Georgie" a

household name in mid-century America. With a new introduction.
