Summary: Suspension of disbelief needed but enjoyable read
Review: It made a lot of sense for Hitler's assasination to be a turning point for the war and Himmler taking over afterwards. It made sense for Rommel to be given his command back and give the Allies a very hard time. However, I had a hard time believing the Soviets so quickly coming to terms with the Nazi's. I also had a hard time believing some of the details in the combat. Everything went right for the Germans until the very end of the book and the real world doesn't work that way. I know a previous reviewer stated the end of the book didn't match what Rommel would have done, but I felt that was very believable. Rommel always took calculated risks in Africa and the Allies could never exploit them. He had to pay sometime. Overall, it was an enjoyable read. I like AH because it can illustrate that what was seen as certain in hindsight was not necessarily a sure thing. The removal of the incompetent Hitler as military leader would have made an enormous difference, especially even earlier than the book described.

Summary: Correction to a Previous Review
Review: I have yet to read the book, although I have it at home. My purpose now, though, is to point out a mistake that was made by th previous reviewer. He makes a small remark that tanks have no steering wheels, however, the Panzerkamfwagen VI (PzKfwg VI), more commonly known as the Tiger, actually had a steering wheel driving a power steering system. Not to second guess the other reader, just to clear up a mistake!
