This volume details the military career and accomplishments of
Walther Model, the youngest Generalfeldmarschall in the Wehrmacht
in World War II and Hitler's favorite commander. His role on the
Eastern Front saw him involved in most of the key battles of the
second half of the warm, including the battles of Kursk Leningrad
and the desperate attempt to halt the Soviet Bagration offensive.
He also played a key role in the west, where his drive and
defensive prowess saw his forces inflict heavy casualties on
British forces at Arnhem and US forces in the Hurtgen Forest.
Model was a tough and tenacious commander, particularly when on the
defense, and his career rise was virtually unprecedented in German
military history. Model truly made his mark late in the war, when
time was already running out for the Third Reich, but time and
again he was rushed from one crumbling front to the next and
succeeded in temporarily restoring the situation. Above all, Model
deserves recognition as one of the great defensive commanders of
modern military history.
