If you are a fan of General Patton or even not, this is a must read. It is probably the most definitive autobiography of the Patton's personal and military career. It was written while many of the people that served with General were still alive to tell the tales, so to speak. The author gives you a head on , straight forward story of a military legend. If I had to choose only one book to read about this great leader, this would be the one.
