Rommel's Army in Africa

Since this book is centered around the Dale McGuirk collection of Rommel artifacts, one would expect it to have strong visuals. And it does: over 250 illustrations, including 20 color plates. However, this is more than a book about a collection. This is about all aspects of the German experience in North Africa: the legend of Rommel, the challenges he faced, day-in-the-life information about soldiers, organization of the forces, important officers, and an over 50 page section on the narrative of the action these troops saw. Hardback: paper over boards in dustjacket; 192 pp, indexed.
