Rommel's Victory in the War Against the Soviet Union
Rommel is an absolutely brilliant battlefield commander but what he never quite realized was that the whole north africa campaign was really just a bit of a side show. The real war was the war against the soviet union and that was where hitler was focused that was where the general staff were focusing on.
