Hitler's Commander: Field Marshal Walter Model--Hitler's Favorite General
New York New York U.S.A.: Da Capo Press 2005. 416pp/illus. Field Marshal Walther Model was an extremely capable and aggressive commander who rose through the ranks of the Wehrmachts high command during World War II. Throughout the war Hitler relied on the rapidly promoted general to save his army in several desperate situations despite the fact that Model was often quite blunt with his erratic Fuhrer. Models greatest achievement was the restoration of stability along the eastern front in June 1944. He was second-in-command at the Battle of the Bulge and was head of the German army when it collapsed at the end of the war. Rather than surrender he shot himself in April 1945. Clean. 1st Printing. Hard Cover. Fine/Near Fine. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. Da Capo Press hardcover
