What a beautiful, complex man. The editors may have been biased but I think they handled it marvelously: they gave jibes but weren't terribly harsh (enough) on Montgomery and the politics of personal and national pride; they bluntly covered Patton's faux pas crass and unintentional yet seemed to express favor overall of the man despite his flaws; and they definitely gave him the (correct) benefit of the doubt in his after-war decisions and words. Much has been written and said of General George S. Patton, Jr. - I wish I had known him.

I found the book “Warrior; the story of General George S. Patton” was a decent book. The author’s purpose for writing this was to inform the reader about George S. Patton and his accomplishments. You know that this is to inform because of George is an important person to not just the United States, but world history.
The theme of this book is about General George S. Patton’s life and what he has done in the war. I know this because this is a biography about Patton, and biographies are about certain people.
This book is a third person narration and you will know this book is because it tells what Patton has done and in the chronological order that he has done it in. I think this is a good format for people who are interested in history and especially interested in the second world war because this will help you get an understanding of what the americans did and why they did them.
I felt that this book was good, but not the best. I am usually not the type of person to read a nonfiction book so I did not find this kind of material to my liking. However, to someone who is both interested in World War II and a big fan of biographies, then I have to say that you would like this book.
