Critic reviews
"Blumenson makes [clear]... the contradictory elements in his character that caused him at times to be outrageously impossible but made him a winning commander." (Forrest Pogue)

Sympathetic
A truly fascinating story of a man with a true gift but who had so very many faults. This is a very sympathetic portrait of Patton but nonetheless it is a fine listen.

I wanted to know why my dad had so much respect for General Patton
I wanted to know why my dad had so much respect for General Patton.
Listening to this book over it’s many hours has done much to answer my question.
I found it most interesting, informative and useful. It was a few good hours well spent.

Gaps in narration - Great Story
There are periodic gaps in the narration. Which if wasn’t for the fascinating subject I may have given up on it. The sound quality overall was also pretty poor.
Patton was a great military leader if somewhat flawed individual that is, for me,what it means to be human. In his case definitely one of the greats f his generation.

Interesting book about an extraordinary man
Rather than listen over the usual few weeks, I had to finish this in just days.
Audible should check the editing as sometimes it skipped.

Poor audio quality.
Poor audio quality, fading in and out. Sounds of someone talking in the background. Great pity as it was otherwise a fascinating glimpse into the life of one of the great military figures of the 2nd World War.
