In this series called "The Generals" from Thomas Nelson Publishing the authors Von Hassell and Breslin provide a good account of Patton. They show him as a harsh taskmaster who comforted dying soldiers. Foul mouthed General yet tender to those at home.In this book "Patton: The Pursuit of Destiny" shows that the myths surrounding Patton are bigger than life or as portrayed in the 1970 movie "Patton." The authors show him with all of his faults and the genius on the battle field that he was.
