Columbia GamesAny game with Rommel in the title usually sells itself. “Rommel in the Kitchen” would be a hit cookbook. A popular book choice is Desmond Young’s The Desert Fox written in 1950. The British author fought against the Fox and was captured by him. He has a cameo in the movie of the same name. After the war Young interviewed Rommel’s family, friends, and some former comrades for his somewhat sympathetic book. He was not the only British officer to be a bit in awe of the Desert Fox.
