Pros & Cons
Pros
Craftly scripted yet crisp. Well written but a little repetitious at times.
Erwin rommel comes across as a practical and pragmatic soldier. The fact that rommel wanted to put * on trial, not just kill him, shows that he understood the guilt that the german people would be saddled with for *'s crimes after the war.
An interesting recap of one of germany's best generals. A smart general who was not given all the tools needed to wage successful warfare. Respected by both his own people as well as the forces opposing him.
