"Good book. Bill O'Reilly does a good job reading it. Pretty much is about Patton in WW2 till his death. Also talks a lot on Joseph Stalin, and Hitler. I enjoyed it."

Quotes
-
“Through a detailed account of Patton’s final years in command, the book considers the myriad parties that benefitted from his untimely death, from Joseph Stalin to an American spy looking to remain cozy with the Soviet Union. In clear, accessible language that takes us inside the minds of historical figures, O’Reilly and Dugard create a blend of fact and fiction as riveting as any thriller.”
