The Memoirs of Field-Marshal Kesselring (1974) By Lynton Hudson
Albert Kesselring was arguably the ablest and versatile General Staff officer of his generation. In the Second World War, he proved himself a master of envelopment by air and land, and of prolonged defensive warfare. He also displayed great diplomatic skill, enforcing close collaboration between air and land forces when the prevailing mood was for their independence, being more successful than most in persuading Hitler to follow his suggestions, and dealing with volatile Italian allies and antagonism from Rommel during his command in the Mediterranean.
