Hitler‘s War in North Africa with David Green

Listen Later

David Green, an Australian historian, wrote Hitler's War in North Africa 1941-1942.

I ask him:

  • Why did Hitler think the Suez Canal was more interesting than Gibraltar?
  • Why did the Germans not go straight to Egypt by sea instead of entering in the middle of North Africa and slogging all the way to Egypt?
  • What surprised David Green in his research of WWII's North African war?
  • How was it to fight a war in the desert?
  • If there's one message from the book, what would it be?
  • Why did the British soldiers wash their clothes in petrol?
  • How did Rommel die?

    • Buy David Green's books on Amazon!
