The Memoirs of Field-Marshal Wilhelm Keitel Reviews

A legacy to history. * Kirkus *
A shocking illustration of how honor and loyalty can be misused....The real value of the book lies in its unvarnished-though often involuntaryportrayal of the moral confusion that spread through Hitler's Germany. -- Ernest S. Pisko * The Christian Science Monitor *
This is an unparalleled insider's account of Nazi Germany, including Hitler and its other leaders, its uncoordinated and often inefficient ministries, service branches, and industrial complex, and its diabolical philosophies and sometimes disastrous strategies. * World War II History *
Important and revealing...a frightening picture of the German militarist....Keitel appears as tragic figure living in an unbelievable doctrinaire world of fantastic automatons all lacking one vital asseta sense of morality. -- Cornelius Ryan, The Longest Day * The New York Times *
