Patton’s Tactician: The War Diary of Lieutenant General Geoffrey Keyes is the first transcribed edition of Keyes’s personal diary to be published. Edited by James W. Holsinger Jr., the diary begins in October 1942, prior to the invasion of French Morocco and Keyes’s engagement in World War II and the Cold War. Holsinger has integrated a variety of related sources, including correspondence between Keyes, Patton, and Eisenhower. A day-to-day chronicle of Keyes’s experiences in the World War II Mediterranean Theater and the early days of the Cold War in occupied Germany and Austria, Patton’s Tactician is an invaluable primary source that offers readers a glimpse into the mind of one of America’s most important World War II corps commanders.
