FIELD-MARSHAL AUCHINLECK, by Alexander Greenwood, is the biography of Field-Marshal Sir Claude Auchinleck by his former A.D.C., Major Alexander Greenwood, who "charts with vivid accuracy the fluctuations in the Field-Marshal's military career and personal life."ย
A major new biography of one of Britain's finest wartime commanders, and this book provides a fascinating crafle to the grave account of a man whose life was filled with incident and drama. Auchinleck's military career was rarely free from controversy for long, having been inceremoniously sacked from his post as Commander-in-Chief India in 1943 before retiring into oblivion in 1947.
