Un uomo normale,con i suoi impulsi e le sue debolezze,ma anche un valoroso ufficiale che si distinse per le sue abilità tattiche e strategiche sia nella prima che nella seconda Guerra mondiale.Nel periodo tra le due guerre insegnò in diverse scuole di guerra e accademie militari. Le tattiche adottate durante la Seconda guerra mondiale nell'Africa Settentrionale gli valsero per sempre l'appellativo di "Volpe del Deserto".Implicato nel tentativo di colpo di stato di Stauffenberg contro Hitler,fu indotto a suicidarsi nel 1944. Viene riprodotto in queste pagine il ricordo delle sue imprese-dalle battaglie sul fronte francese fino allo sfondamento di Caporetto,durante la prima Guerra mondiale-con una serie di lezioni tattiche.

Field Marshal Erwin Rommel exerted an almost hypnotic influence not only over his own troops but also over the Allied soldiers of the Eighth Army in the Second World War. Even when the legend surrounding his invincibility was overturned at El Alamein, the aura surrounding Rommel himself remained unsullied. In this classic study of the art of war Rommel analyses the tactics that lay behind his success. First published in 1937 it quickly became a highly regarded military textbook, and also brought its author to the attention of Adolph Hitler. Rommel was to subsequently advance through the ranks to the high command in the Second World War. As a leader of a small unit in the First World War, he proved himself an aggressive and versatile commander, with a reputation for using the battleground terrain to his own advantage, for gathering intelligence, and for seeking out and exploiting enemy weaknesses. Rommel graphically describes his own achievements, and those of his units, in the swift-moving battles on the Western Front, in the ensuing trench warfare, in the 1917 campaign in Romania, and in the pursuit across the Tagliamento and Piave rivers.This classic account seeks out the basis of his astonishing leadership skills, providing an indispensable guide to the art of war written by one of its greatest exponents.

Although sometimes billed as a bio of Rommel, it does nothing to portray his life. It does show is genius and daring on the battlefield. It does portray him as a leader, demonstrating how he can act in adversity, how he can make successful command decisions on impulse. How he managed to develop units that outperform all others.
I wish it went into more personal detail. It isn't clear whether he developed good men, found them, or got them by chance. The book is an accurate military portrayal of events, but doesn't discuss the interpersonal relationships developed, how he inspired his men, or gained the respect of his superiors.
I can recommend this for people interested in military history, or in Rommel himself. There are better works on World War I. ( )
