The author regards Field Marshal Erich von Manstein not only as the most capable general of the Wehrmacht, but perhaps as the best army commander of all armies in the Second World War and ranks him among the most important general officers in modern military history. Because of his attitude during the genocide in the Crimea, at Stalingrad and his judgement during Operation Citadel, the author notes a split in his personality that prompts him to choose the title "Janus Head".
