Steven Pressfield's quintet of acclaimed, bestselling novels of ancient warfare—Gates of Fire, Tides of War, Last of the Amazons, The Virtues of War and The Afghan Campaign—have earned him a reputation as a master chronicler of military history, a supremely literate and engaging storyteller, and an author with acute insight into the minds of men in battle. In KILLING ROMMEL Pressfield extends his talents to the modern world with a WWII tale based on the real-life exploits of the Long Range Desert Group, an elite British special forces unit that took on the German Afrika Korps and its legendary commander, Field Marshal Erwin Rommel, "the Desert Fox."

If you are thinking about buying this book, remember that it is FICTION - a novel.... not a non-fiction history. I made that mistake when I bought it, thinking it was a factual history of the plots to kill Rommel.

The book maybe fiction, but the SAS and LRDG were all too real, Thanks finally an accurate depiction of the " Desert Raiders ".

@pedonbio then what the hell is industrialhighvoltag talking about?

[pedonbio]

@RazorCell7 It is.

[thecrowandthehawk]

This book is bull shit. Rommel committed suicide under hitlers order for opposing him in an attempt to assassinate him.

[RazorCell7]

@industrialhighvoltag I thought it was fiction.. .

'England stands isolated' Typical Yank! Its BRITAIN you numpty!

[1toscany]

This reminds me of the "Rat Patrol" series...

[industrialhighvoltag]

The most accurate account of operations in North Africa I have ever read. The actions of the LDG are heroic as their sacrifice shall not be forgotten. Well done.
