Review: The Last Days of Patton

The Last Days of Patton The Last Days of Patton by Ladislas Farago
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I was so disappointed with the discursive mess of Killing Patton: The Strange Death of World War II's Most Audacious General that I had to read something that actually addressed the potential conspiracy head-on. This does that. Apparently, if these quotes and excerpts of Patton's writing can be believed, Patton was an ultra-nationalist, anti-Semite, Nazi coddling commie hater that was a potential embarrassment to Eisenhower. Still, his death appears to be no more than a tragic car accident made mysterious by an unfortunate lack of investigation and autopsy. No, no real evidence of a conspiracy to get the potentially embarrassing Patton out of the way...
