Interweaving the lives of three of the most significant and also controversial generals of the 20th century, culminating in their battles and rivalries in World War II, Triumph of Leadership explores the varying paths that George Patton, Bernard Montgomery, and Erwin Rommel each took, and philosophies they developed, towards leadership.Patton and Montgomery each longed to fight Rommel given the latter’s stature and reputation, and both succeeded. The competitive rivalry between Patton and Montgomery and their caustic comments about each other in Sicily and Normandy, caused constant problems for Eisenhower and other Allied leaders.Clark has woven a superb array of letters and diary entries into his story, allowing the three generals to speak for themselves and for others—from superior officers to rank-and-file soldiers—to speak about them. This makes his narrative all the more vivid.Colorful and egotistical, each figure had character flaws and needed to somehow overcome their own serious misadventures at various points. The leadership lessons embedded in each general’s story can be usefully applied in many arenas.Only Montgomery lived well beyond World War II. Accused of treason, Rommel was forced to take his own life before the war ended. Patton died a year later in an accident.For readers of Carlo D’Este’s bestseller Patton: A Genius for War (HarperCollins, 1995) and Terry Brighton’s Patton, Montgomery, Rommel: Masters of War (Crown, 2009).Lloyd Clark is one of the leading military historians of our time, and Patton’s inclusion should encourage strong American review attention. Clark is an expert on all aspects of military leadership, making his assessments of the three generals all the more authoritative.Lloyd Clark has published four previous books on World War II with Grove. His most recent, Blitzkrieg (2016), has sold over 10,000 copies in all formats.
