The Blitzkrieg Myth
by John Mosier
Hitler, Rommel, von Manstein, Montgomery, and Patton were all equally seduced by the idea of breakthrough, or blitzkrieg. The blitzkrieg myth was based on the belief that the new technology of the airplane and the tank would result in rapid and massive advances on the battlefield. The demoralization of the enemy by intensive bombing would cause vast destruction, and lead to surrender in a matter of weeks. Author and military historian John Mosier shows how the Polish campaign in the autumn of 1939 and the fall of France in the spring of 1940 were not blitzkrieg victories. He also reinterprets Rommel's North African campaigns, D-day, the Normandy campaign, and Hitler's last desperate breakthrough effort to Antwerp in the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944, among others. All these actions saw the clash of breakthrough theories with the realities of conventional military tactics. The Blitzkrieg Myth is a compelling and original analysis, challenging us to reassess the military tactics of last century's greatest crisis.
