Firs published in 1991. "Desert Warfare: German Experiences in
World War II" is an abridgment of a two-volume work that first
appeared in 1952. Organized by Major General Alfred Toppe and
written with the assistance of nine German commanders who served in
North Africa, the manuscript represents a collaborative attempt to
determine as many factors as possible which exerted a determining
influence on desert warfare. Issues addressed include planning,
intelligence, logistics, and operations. Described and analyzed are
the German order of battle, the major military engagements in North
Africa, and the particular problems of terrain and climate in
desert operations. Not unlike many of the U.S. units engaged in the
war with Iraq, the Germans in North Africa learned about combat
operations in the desert only after they arrived on the scene and
confronted the desert on its own terms. For this reason alone, as
well as for the insights it offers, Desert Warfare requires the
serious consideration of those responsible for preparing the U.S.
military for any future conflict in desert terrain.
