Wielotygodniowy numer 1 na liście bestseller�w 'New York Timesa'! 1,5 miliona egzemplarzy sprzedanych w USA! Kto stał za śmiercią generała Pattona w grudniu 1945 roku? George S. Patton junior, agresywny, zdeterminowany, jeden z najbardziej kontrowersyjnych dow�dc�w II wojny światowej. Wieczny wojownik, błyskotliwy strateg, bezwzględnie szczery, często obcesowy. Stał się niewygodny dla polityk�w, gdy 8 maja 1945 roku, w dniu zakończenia wojny w Europie, zaszokował słuchaczy na konferencji prasowej, ogłaszając, że: 'Będziemy potrzebowali nieustającej pomocy Wszechmogącego, jeśli mamy żyć na jednym świecie ze Stalinem i jego morderczymi zbirami (...). Pokonaliśmy jednego wroga ludzkości, ale umocniliśmy drugiego, znacznie gorszego'. Kilka miesięcy p�źniej, tuż przed powrotem do Stan�w Zjednoczonych, Patton zginął na skutek tajemniczego wypadku samochodowego. Przez ponad 70 lat podejrzewano, że jego śmierć nie była przypadkowa. Na kartach Zabić Pattona autorzy opisują potężnych wrog�w, kt�rzy mogli usunąć niewygodnego generała. Bill O`Reilly, wielka gwiazda telewizji Fox News, i historyk Martin Dugard opisują wkład generała George`a S. Pattona juniora w zwycięstwo aliant�w i rolę, jaką jego 3. Armia odegrała w pokonaniu III Rzeszy. Pokazują też, że na polu polityki Patton musiał stawić czoło przeciwnikom znacznie groźniejszym i bezwzględnym niż na polach bitew. Śmierć Pattona, zaciekłego wroga komunizmu i imperialnych ambicji Rosji, zyskuje obecnie niebezpiecznie aktualne znaczenie. Słowa z maja 1945 roku: 'Dzisiaj powinniśmy powiedzieć Rosjanom, że mają iść w cholerę, zamiast ich słuchać, kiedy nam m�wią, że mamy się cofnąć', są niestety zn�w na czasie. Tym bardziej warto poznać kulisy tajemniczej śmierci generała Pattona.
