Guderian: Panzer General (Greenhill Military Paperbacks.)

Guderian was a man of ideas equipped with the ability to turn inspiration into reality. A master of strategy and tactics, he was the officer most responsible for creating blitzkrieg in World War II. This biography--fully updated with new material on Enigma and Guderian’s reaction to the July plot--illuminates the struggles within the German hierarchy and examines why Guderian was so admired by some while denigrated by others. This revised edition of the biography of a famous German general provides insight into the man behind blitzkrieg and includes information taken directly from the extensive Guderian family archives.
