This has been noted in other reviews on Amazon, surprisingly they said it favored Monty. I figure when it comes to favoring sides in politics it is in the eye of the beholder. I found the book shows that the Allies were not always best of friends and this affected decisions for the western campaign. Some with grave consequences. The best thing I can say is read the book and make up your own mind. I will say that Atkinson does his usual in depth story telling and comes up more details that you may not know.
