About this product

Product Information

The men, the minds, and the military tactics of Nazi Germany that would challenge the world to war. In 1940, as Nazi Germany spread its wings of war, France stood secure in the knowledge that they possessed the largest, most formidable, and best-equipped army in Europe. France also had a stalwart ally in Britain and the support of Holland and Belgium. But they were all about to face a new kind of enemy who fought a new kind of war. In this book, expert military strategist Bevin Alexander examines the groundbreaking martial concepts developed by three brilliant generals- Erwin Rommel, Erich von Manstein, and Heinz Guderian. Their plan was to unleash the power of the tank, grouping them into juggernauts that would slam into-and through-enemy lines, as aircraft supported them and ground forces swept in behind them. It was the Blitzkrieg. And it alerted the world that the deadly might of Germany could no longer be ignored...

Reviews
"Bevin Alexander has superbly chronicled one of World War II's most dramatic events. Inside the Nazi War Machinevividly recounts how Rommel, von Manstein and Guderian turned the Blitzkrieg into a fearsome weapon of war in France in 1940, and how Hitler botched his best opportunity to have defeated the BEF, and perhaps defeated Britain." -Carlo D'Este, author of Patton: A Genius For Warand Warlord: A Life of Winston Churchill at War, 1874-1945 "Bevin Alexander proves once again that he is a consummate master of historical analysis. This is the best single-volume examination to date of the new kind of 'lightning warfare' unleashed on the battlefield by the genius of Guderian, Manstein and Rommel. Armchair Generalmagazine gives this must read book five stars, our very highest rating." -Jerry D. Morelock, PhD, Col. U.S. Army, (Ret.), and Editor in Chief of Armchair General "Bevin Alexander guides us from Nazi staff meetings to the tanks on the front lines, from generals to corporals, presenting in suspenseful detail the brilliance and blunders of army field commanders during those early, terrifying days of World War II. His descriptions of tactical situations are masterful, almost as if he himself had been present at the conflict." -Forrest Bryant Johnson, author of Phantom Warrior "A thought-provoking study of a thinker, Manstein, a doer, Rommel, and a combination of both, Guderian, who together conceived, pursued and achieved a momentous victory despite the reticence, fears and obstructions of the German General Staff and Adolf Hitler himself. Bevin Alexander has compiled a telling testimonial to audacity, perspicacity and perseverance in the conduct of military operations that provides excellent lessons for the now and future leaders contemplating military action." -General Frederick J. Kroesen, former vice chief of staff of the U.S. Army and Commander in Chief of U.S. Army Europe, "Bevin Alexander has superbly chronicled one of World War II's most dramatic events.

    I just love this so much. Super fast shipping. Item was packaged with care as this is super fragile. What an awesome price for this item. I sold mine a few years back for double what i paid for this one and i have regretted it for years. This was a gift to myself. As described but so much better in person than anybody could ever imagine. Would recommend this seller 100%.
