Jörg Muth received his Ph.D. in history from the University of Utah, USA. He is the author of Flucht aus dem militärischen Alltag: Ursachen und individuelle Ausprägung der Desertion in der Armee Friedrichs des Großen, a study of desertion in the Prussian army during the era of Frederick the Great.
“The general message, though controversial and certain to lead to
arguments, is buttressed by substantial evidence. Muth’s topic has
immediate present-day relevance.”—Gerhard Weinberg, author, A World
at Arms
“An important and long-lasting contribution to the debate over
officer training in the United States.”—Robert Citino, author, The
German Way of War
“Muth’s challenge to the ‘new military history’ will generate
controversy but cannot be dismissed.”—Dennis Showalter, author,
Patton and Rommel
“Muth’s analysis of the U.S. Army is a hard one, but he backs it up
with extensive research. This is one of the most important books
about the German and American armies in many years.”—Major-General
