He was a severe taskmaster who comforted dying soldiers and quietly commended their valor. A crusty, often foulmouthed commander who had written tender words home to the love of his life. Gen. George S. Patton Jr. involves life in this sound as one of the most vibrant, enigmatic, and unfairly maligned leaders in U.S. military services record. Often caricatured - such as the big-screen biopic, Patton - the general was a intricate blend of battle-tested strengths and nearly fatal personal imperfections. Without varnishing over his shortcomings, Patton: The Quest for Future shatters myths and builds a convincing case for a deeper understanding of the man who inspired unsurpassed devotion and admiration from the soldiers who offered under him. Destined for an outsized life, Patton parlayed his family's profound military origins, his World Battle I experiences, his Olympic exploits, and his passion for freedom to be one of the linchpins of Allied victory in World Battle II.
