As I Knew War It's a personal and open account of his legendary, never-ending crusade across Western Europe during WWII. The book is an engrossing storey based on Patton's vivid battle experiences and extensive notebooks, and it spans the period from the moment the Third Army stormed into the Brittany Peninsula to the final Allied casualty report. The result is a valuable chronicle by one of history's most brilliant military strategists, as well as a gritty, human narrative of daily warfare and heroic feats-including a compelling look at the Battle of the Bulge.

He paints a vivid portrayal of an American professional soldier caught up in the rigours of battle.
