A military classic by a legendary American general.

War as I Knew It is the personal and candid account of General George S. Patton, Jr.'s celebrated, relentless crusade across Europe during World War II.

First published in 1947, this absorbing narrative draws on Patton's vivid memories of battle and his detailed diaries, from the moment the Third Army exploded onto the Brittany Peninsula to the final Allied casualty report. The result is not only a grueling, human account of daily combat but also a valuable chronicle of the strategies and fiery personality of a brilliant warrior.

My great great uncle General Patton was never described in this manner and this book has been one of the most intriguing reads I have ever read!

General Patton was more humble and a better tactician than I originally thought!

Masterful presentation of General Patton’s first hand skill and knowledge of war. I was stationed at Bitburg AB and was fascinated with General Patton’s detail, analysis and specific detail of battles, unit movements and personalities in each engagement. General Patton also makes a very useful approach of stating individual names and in most instances his evaluations. It is his evaluations that give us the crucial context of combatants personalities, responses under fatigue or stress and impact these factors had on outcomes. His citation of the name of German officers in many engagements shows General Patton’s own respect for the combatant and opposing leadership quality. General Patton frequently credits many in his commentary often at the General’s own expense. A fantastic record, one which I will personally revisit many time, digging deeper into one of our most famous warriors mind….and that of those with whom he fought the war as well as that of those he opposed. Narrator was very effective in carrying through in delivering the multiple themes and personal emotions of these war time operations.

Excellent Education in Every Regard

Ole Blood and Guts didn’t disappoint! It’s insane to think I wrote this after going thru the war before he died shortly after its ending. Outstanding piece of history here and written in a day to day perspective of ww2s greatest general.

Well read and outstandingly written!

I found this reading of General Patton's diaries, with historical commentaries quite amazing, and some of the things said about him seem a fiction after hearing his own words, for example, from the movie, we are less to believe the he believes in reincarnation, and t5 of the fields of battle that he was treading on were the same ones that Napoleon, and his army fought on, and the significance of that!

The lessons in this book should be being taught in all Military academies, and if they are not, then I fear for the safety of our nation, and our posterity!

Most illuminating...

The narrator did a splendid job illustrating the words of the late great General. The only person who could one up this performance would be George C. Scott.

A must read for anyone in a leadership position.
