Killing Patton: Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard

This was an interesting story in that it started out with Patton's suspicious death and the reader was wondering what the book could possibly be about now that Patton was already dead. The bulk of the story was a nice overview of everything one learned in history class about WWII, setting the mood for the end of the war. The last chapter(s)spoke of the missing accident report from Patton's attempted murder and how he was getting better, then mysteriously died. It also spoke of one man's persistence that the accident was more than an accident, though his reports were never really taken seriously. This was one of those books that are very interesting when you think it might be a dry read and its conclusion makes you want to do some research of your own.
