OverviewThis excellent study was commissioned by the U.S. Marine Corps from the distinguished academic and military historian Russel Stolfi. This ground-breaking work is more than just a Divisional history. The whole basis of Rommel's exceptional handling is summed up in Stolfi's masterful conclusion 'Rommel had a bias for action.' The book traces the actions of the 7th 'Ghost' division in France during 1940 and the early part of the campaign in Russia during 1941. This powerful work brilliantly illustrates Stolfi's commanding insight into the genius of Rommel as a Divisional commander. Long out of print, this new edition brings back into circulation a classic piece of military history writing for a new audience. 30 integrated maps and original documents Full Product DetailsAuthor: Bob CarruthersPublisher: Pen & Sword Books Ltd Imprint: Pen & Sword Military Weight: 0.358kg ISBN: 9781783462469ISBN 10: 1783462469 Pages: 160 Publication Date: 01 July 2014 Audience: General/trade , General Format: Paperback Publisher's Status: Active Availability: In Print ![]() This item will be ordered in for you from one of our suppliers.
