This book is all about the history and life and career of General George S. Patton the book contains a lot of information on him such as his childhood, and portions of his life that have never been explained or told to anybody. It also talks about his philosophy on War, life, and citizenship. He tells us about his war strategies and how he was able to prevent the German Army from invading England and also prevented them from taking all of Europe. The book tells you about Patton’s believe in reincarnation and that he was rarely wrong in political debates and that his legacy as a whole in this book is very arguable.

This book would interest anybody who likes to read about WWII and also learn about one of the great Generals during the war and the impact he had on the outcome. Its full of unknown facts and stories about the great general that have never been told. It may interest you to read about how he was fearless and that he had a huge impact on the war. If you’re a history nut or WWII nut then you will enjoy this book. It is full of facts and unknown secrets about the general

I gave this book five stars because I thought it was just a great book overall I really enjoyed it. I loved all the detail t gave about the warzones and how Patton thought and how he came up with some of his ideas. I felt like during most of the book that I was actually there with him and that the decisions he makes actually affect me. I couldn’t put it down once I started reading it and was one of the best historical books I have ever read.

General Geoge S. "Blood and Guts" Patton was one of the most controversial military American generals of World War II. He believed in reincarnation as well as being outspoken. Seldom was he politically correct.
