82) The Trail of the Fox: The Life of Field-Marshal Erwin Rommel by David Irving this ended up being rather disappointing for me which is a great shame because I was excited when I managed to locate a biography on Rommel. It meandered more than necessary which slowed the pace of the book.

83) Knight’s Cross A Life of Field Marshal Erwin Rommel by David Fraser finishing the year with another book on The Desert Fox. This I enjoyed far more than the previous one as it went into much more detail over Rommel’s alleged involvement in the July 20 plot as well as his exploits on the battlefield.
