果说欧洲战场的鏖战是一部历史剧，那么北非战役就是这出戏剧的第一幕。在这里，大英帝国沦为英美同盟中的附庸，轴心国士兵对军官丧失信心、无心恋战，而美国则尽显锋芒，并成为世界的主导力量。 本书为这段被遗忘的历史树立了一座丰碑，它以险象环生的火炬行动为切入点，梳理了1942年11月至1942年5月间盟军登陆法属摩洛哥与阿尔及利亚、攻占突尼斯，并歼灭轴心国非洲军团的惨烈战事。组建不久的盟军原本深陷杂乱无章的后勤补给、盟国间的争权夺利和层出不穷的军事误判。但经历过朱代伊德奇袭、凯塞林山口惨败和突尼斯桥头堡的决战，仓促上阵的美军终于学会了仇恨，学会了如何战胜久经沙场的敌人。 作者既浓墨重彩地描写了艾森豪威尔、巴顿、蒙哥马利等在北非脱颖而出的指挥官，也满怀悲悯地刻画了来不及拔枪便倒在血泊之中的士兵、在战争中惨遭蹂躏的平民以及命如草芥的悲惨俘虏。阿特金森笔下真实、恐怖...(展开全部)
