| Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles
available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. General Sir
Kenneth Arthur Noel Anderson, KCB, MC (December 25, 1891 - April 29,
1959) was a British Army officer in both the First and Second World
Wars. He is mainly remembered as the commander of the First Army during
Operation Torch, the Allied invasion of Tunisia. He had an outwardly
reserved character and did not court popularity either with his
superiors or with the public. Eisenhower wrote that he was "blunt, at
times to the point of rudeness". In consequence he is less well known
than many of his contemporaries. He handled a difficult campaign more
competently than his critics suggest, but competence without flair was
not good enough for a top commander in 1944. |
