Field Marshal Sir William Robertson : Chief of the Imperial General Staff in the Great War

Rating:
Summary: Robertson, the lesser Field Marshal
Review: A plainly absurd biography on Robertson, CIGS, and the only Fiied Marshal of the British Army who rose from the ranks, and most incompetent at that.

Whilst his bravery is indoubted, any sane person will question Robertson's qualifications to plan, and lead the BEF. A born intriguer and a devious person to boot, Robertson was an abject failure and his sacking by Lloyd George was long overdue.

And Hiag should get it too if only the PM had the courage.
