Book Reviews of Exit Rommel: The Tunisian Campaign, 1942-43 (Stackpole Military History)

Book Review: Good book
Summary: 5 Stars

I very much enjoyed this book. His brief overview of the El Alamein battles are more informative than entire books on the battles that I have read. His writing is engaging, concise, and other similar adjectives that I can't think of right now but which can be found in a thesaurus. The bottom line is that the book is entertaining to read instead of being like a spreadsheet of what unit was where or a study in how complex and flitty a sentence can be constructed. I also like the fact that he points out several other of Montgomery's annoying characteristics that I wasn't aware of. One book pointed out that the end result of Market Garden was a long road leading to nowhere. I was wary of this book, being in the Stackpole series of multiple identical books similar to the Ballantine series which are mostly very dry, but it not only covers a topic which I wanted to learn about and about which there are not many books written (unlike D-Day,) but is also good.
