Patton \"mentally unbalanced\" and \"just like a time bomb,\" and indeed, the egotistical, mercurial, aggressive Patton is perhaps as well known for his questionable behavior and eccentric beliefs as for his daring battlefield exploits. In a brief but probing assessment of Patton's life based on strong research in primary sources and knowledge of psychology, Jim Sudmeier considers the mind of Patton: what made this military genius tick? To what extent was Patton's boldness and brilliance as a general, his willingness to welcome risk and danger, connected to his unstable personality? Sudmeier presents a myth-shattering reconsideration of one of military history's most famous commanders.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Stackpole Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":47889274765463,"sku":"9780811738545","price":2071.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9780811738545.webp?v=1781175396","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/pattons-madness-the-dark-side-of-a-battlefield-genius-9780811738545","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
