Military historian Mitch Yockelson examines the extraordinary leadership of Generals Matthew Ridgway and Maxwell Taylor in The Paratrooper Generals. Unlike most commanders who directed battles from behind the lines, Ridgway and Taylor led from the front, parachuting into Normandy alongside their troops during D-Day and enduring six brutal weeks of combat that cost their divisions more than 40 percent casualties. Drawing on extensive archival research, Yockelson illuminates how their courage, tactical innovation, and presence on the battlefield shaped the success of the 82nd and 101st Airborne Divisions and offers new insight into the personal risks and decisive leadership that helped turn the tide of World War II.
