He was a successful leader who won battles regularly. He had a different approach to the Americans who went at things hell for leather and threw resources at problems but he was no slouch. I would argue that your view is coloured by the side of the atlantic you sit on.
Like any general, he had his flaws. He was not at his best in a war of mobility.
Also, I thought Dorfl was Irish?
