4.0 out of 5 stars Britain's Answer To Rommell, 11 Sep 2006
By Michael David Booker "Member of the Guild of ... (France and Egypt) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
This review is from: Horrocks, The General Who Led from the Front (Hardcover)
"Horrocks" is Philip Warner's excellent biography of Lieutenant General Sir Brian Horrocks. Often described as "Britain's answer to Rommel," Horrocks enjoyed a long, successful and distinguished regular army career, before taking up the position of Black Rod in the Houses of Parliament. Not content with a quiet retirement, he later accepted a Directorship with the construction company Bovis , before going on to present a highly successful series of television programmes and becoming a most respected journalist and writer!

Horrocks who served in both World Wars, enjoyed the reputation of being one of the most successful field commanders of World War Two, a distinction which can be attributed to his unique style of leadership, where he successfully motivated his subordinates by bringing the best out in them and by winning them over, he went on to win more than one battle and play a major part in Monty's overall success.

In "Horrocks", Philip Warner has produced a book that is a fitting tribute to a very talented man, it provides fascinating reading and is sure to be appreciated by any one with an interest in military history.
