 Working Dogs Book Store - Defeat in the West (Cassell Military Paperbacks) (Milton Shulman , Max Hastings)
Shulman occasionally loses sight of this fact, although corrects himself at the end of the book by placing much of the blame on the German field generals and general staff.
Shulman shows that this meant that commanders on the various fronts had little or no idea about events and situations elsewhere, nor of what sort of reserves or supplies were available.
Given that Shulman's factors of Hitler, discipline and ignorance were basically present throughout the entire war, Shulman's assessment fails to explain why the German military went from a winner to a loser.

Shulman's best-known creation, however, is probably Dobie Gillis--that smooth-talking schlemiel of a college student, always on the make for female companionship.
Perelman, and if Shulman is a tad less clever than that comedic monster, he's also superior at inducing the world-class belly laugh.
Max Shulman's Dobie Gillis is a young man on the make who remains as funny today as he did when he was created back in the 1950s.

Max Shulman created Maynard's character specifically for the TV show.
When Bob Denver asked Max why Maynard wasn't in either of the books, Shulman would only reply, "Because I wanted to sell a few copies!"
But it was Bob himself who actually fleshed out the character, mainly because the writers had no idea what beatniks were really like.

A boundlessly energetic musical romance based on Max Shulman's book, that saw the creation of that archetypical girl-watcher Dobie Gillis.
Sparkling with big-band tunes, free-wheeling dance numbers and plenty of collegiate high jinks, the success of this picture was enough to earn Dobie a TV series in 1959, where Dwayne Hickman took over the duties that Bobby Van so wonderfully introduced here.

 Max Shulman Poems
Similarly, in Shulman's second-to-last novel, "Anyone Got A Match" another love poem fell into the wrong hands.
Well if his semi-autobiographical "Potatoes Are Cheaper" can be believed, his inspiration may have originated with his 20 year old cousin Crip, whose debilitating fragile bone disease caused him to "sublimate" his sex drive into verse.
Shulman used poetry in almost every one of his novels, so if you want more, go buy one, or try your public library.
