Inside the Nazi War Machine: How Three Generals Unleashed Hitler's Blitzkrieg Upon the World - Hardcover
Synopsis
The men, the minds, and the military tactics of Nazi Germany that would challenge the world to war.
In 1940, as Nazi Germany spread its wings of war, France stood secure in the knowledge that they possessed the largest, most formidable, and best-equipped army in Europe. France also had a stalwart ally in Britain and the support of Holland and Belgium. But they were all about to face a new kind of enemy who fought a new kind of war.
In this book, expert military strategist Bevin Alexander examines the groundbreaking martial concepts developed by three brilliant generals- Erwin Rommel, Erich von Manstein, and Heinz Guderian. Their plan was to unleash the power of the tank, grouping them into juggernauts that would slam into-and through-enemy lines, as aircraft supported them and ground forces swept in behind them. It was the Blitzkrieg. And it alerted the world that the deadly might of Germany could no longer be ignored...

From AudioFile
Alexander tells the story of the German Blitz in Western Europe, focusing on strategy and tactics but also giving detail on operations and individual conflicts. Ray Porter's voice is announcer-like--not charming, perhaps, but clear, energetic, and expressive. His pace is sometimes a bit too quick, given the many names, places, and military details in the text, but he's adept at bringing out the author's feelings and judgments--usually disbelief, scorn, or even sarcasm at the appalling incompetence of the French. Unfortunately, he frequently mispronounces both German and French, which is often confusing and sometimes unintentionally funny. It's a regrettable flaw in what is, overall, an engaging performance.
