Erwin Rommel is the best-known German field commander of the Second World War. Repeatedly decorated for valour during the First World War, he went on to lead the German Panzer divisions in France and North Africa. To his British opponents he became known by the sobriquet 'Desert Fox'. But how should he be judged by history? To many he remains the ideal soldier, but as Reuth shows, Rommel remained loyal to his Fu hrer until forced to commit suicide, and his fame, to a great extent, was the creation of the master propagandist Joseph Goebbels. Stripping away the many layers of Nazi and Allied propaganda and myth, Reuth argues that Rommel's life symbolises the German tragedy: to have followed Hitler into the abyss, and to have considered that to be his duty.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Repeatedly decorated for valour during the First World War, Erwin Rommel went on to lead German Panzer divisions in North Africa, becoming known as the 'Desert Fox.'Stripping away layers of wartime German and Allied propaganda, Reuth's dramatic reassessment of Rommel's life finds him at odds with his popular legacy. His purported involvement with the 20 July plotters was a myth. In fact, he remained mindlessly loyal to his Führer until forced to commit suicide in 1944.Colluding with the Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels to bolster his fame, Rommel was also a useful figure for the Allies ? in exaggerating his battlefield prowess they succeeded in making the incompetence of their own campaign in North Africa.This revelatory biography shows Rommel was no master strategist caught between duty and resistance, but the embodiment of the tragic German choice to follow Hitler unquestionably into the abyss.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Erwin Rommel is the best-known German field commander of World War II. Repeatedly decorated for valor during the First World War, he would go on to lead the German Panzer divisions in France and North Africa. Even his British opponents admitted to admiring his apparent courage, chivalry and leadership, and he became known by the nickname Desert Fox. His death, in October 1944, would give rise to speculation for generations to come on how history should judge him. To many he remains the ideal soldier, but, as Reuth shows, Rommel remained loyal to his Fuehrer until forced to commit suicide, and his fame was largely a creation of the master propagandist Joseph Goebbels. Stripping away the many layers of Nazi and Allied propaganda, Reuth argues that Rommels life symbolizes the complexity and conflict of the German tragedy: to have followed Hitler into the abyss, and to have considered that to be his duty. Stripping away the many lays of Nazi and Allied propaganda, Reuth argues that Rommels life symbolises the German tragedy: to have followed Hitler into the abyss, and to have considered that to be his duty.
