Erwin Rommel est le plus connu des g�n�raux allemands de la Seconde Guerre mondiale.

Plus de soixante ans apr�s sa mort, il personnifie encore le soldat allemand exemplaire, qui inspire le respect aussi bien pour sa formidable ma�trise de l'art de la guerre que pour s'�tre montr� r�serv� avec le r�gime nazi.
Or, � la lumi�re des archives et notamment des correspondances priv�es de Rommel, comme des rapports officiels, Beno�t Lemay remet en question cette image apolog�tique. En r�alit�, Rommel a �t� un partisan convaincu du F�hrer qui lui est rest� fid�le jusqu'� la fin et sa gloire est redevable en partie � la propagande nazie qui en a fait un " dieu de la guerre " issu du peuple.
Mais cela n'aurait pas suffi � faire du " Renard du d�sert " un h�ros capable d'inspirer Hollywood : l'adversaire britannique a contribu� presque autant � la fabrication du " mythe Rommel ". C'est l'histoire paradoxale d'un soldat d'exception au service d'un r�gime criminel que raconte ce livre.

Beno�t Lemay est sp�cialiste d'histoire militaire et de l'Allemagne. Il a publi� Erich von Manstein : le strat�ge de Hitler .

Presse:

"..une biographie �patante du g�n�ral allemand battant en br�che la plupart des nobles id�es re�ues � son sujet."
Albert Sebag, Le Point , 22 Janvier 09
