Summary

A stunning look at World War II from the other side.... From the turret of a German tank, Colonel Hans von Luck commanded Rommel's 7th and then 21st Panzer Division. El Alamein, Kasserine Pass, Poland, Belgium, Normandy on D-Day, the disastrous Russian front - von Luck fought there with some of the best soldiers in the world. German soldiers. Awarded the German Cross in Gold and the Knight's Cross, von Luck writes as an officer and a gentleman. Told with the vivid detail of an impassioned eyewitness, his rare and moving memoir has become a classic in the literature of World War II, a first-person chronicle of the glory - and the inevitable tragedy - of a superb soldier fighting Hitler's war.

It's not often you get to see, or in some people's cases not even want to, a German take on the horrific events of WW2 but this book is just that.

I found it fascinating to see the conflictions of a clearly very well educated man who clearly loved life and all that the world could offer him culturally and the job he had to do for the Nazis.

The whole story was a superb listen and I'd recommend it to anyone who has an interest in either WW2 or just autobiographies in general

Fascinating and compelling
