ISBN10: 1869410521, ISBN13: 9781869410520, [publisher: Century Hutchinson, Auckland] Hardcover Bernard Freyberg was NZ's most notable military figure of WWII, but the general was also controversial with his command abilities subsequently questioned. For troops of the NZ division. which he commanded through Crete, North Africa and Italy, no such questions arose. This recent book on Freyberg VC was written with access to newly declassified war-time records which provide answers to his critics, who often overlook the impossible situations he was called on to face and the continual reshuffling of British Army senior commanders. The authors have rebalanced the record about General Freyberg in this notable battle biography, through careful analysis of three major campaigns where he played a leading role --- Crete, the "Left Hook" battle at the Mareth Line in North Africa and at Cassino. A feature of the book is the use of many photographs for the first time, taken by John White, Freyberg's personal assistant during WWII. First edition of 1989, 310 pages including notes, appendices glossary, bibliography and index. 63 b/w photos, numerous battle maps. Blue hard covers with gilt spine titles VG++ with hint wear at spine base, tiny ink name top corner FFEP, text block otherwise NF. Colour art DJ, with Peter McIntyre battle portrait of the General to front, is VG++.
