General Patton please!
Not exactly a naval topic, but I am looking for a good book on General Patton. If you have read one, please suggest it to me.

I flipped through an intersting book a few years ago that is filled with excerpts from Patton's diay. Not a novel, though it provides quick, fun and interesting reading and a rare view into the man. The title is: War as I knew it.

Also, "The Patton Papers".
There is a Patton Museum down in Southern California somewhere.

Ballantine war series (paperback) has a short bio on him. He's a trip to read about.
