Silence Patton

I've read literally dozens of books and seen the 1970 classic "Patton'' annually for decades. In "Silencing Patton,'' Robert Orlando builds on the story answering many of the "Why'' questions you may ask yourself during other stories about America's greatest general. The victors get to write the history of wars and each nation tends to focus on its own version of history when telling the colossal story that is the great World War II. "Silencing Patton" explains the backstory that made Patton controversial, feared and beloved in his own time and in the decades since.
