The author observed the campaign first-hand, and has spent twenty years poring over war diaries and regimental papers to provide an in-depth analysis of Montgomery''s generalship, personality, complex relations with his American allies, and his own subordinates. Looking at Montgomery''s performance as a morale builder both for troops and civilians, this books also examines his difficulties with the diplomatic niceties of coalition warfare.</P>
