The only reason to “consult” Rommel and Montgomery, is to study the routes of attack/defense each side used and compare those to the current road nets of the two countries. And to adjust their operations to match their (Egypt’s) current capabilities.

I did read some books about North African campaign during WW2...
El Alamein and Tobruk...I do remember those battles...
One of the best comprehensive books on the battles for North Africa in Libya and Egypt are Barrie Pitt’s two volume work “Crucible of War.” An older account is Alan Moorehead’s 3 volume “The North African Campaign.” My favorite for life as an individual soldier is Major Robert Crisp’s “Brazen Chariots.” Crisp’s account is his experience as the commander of a company of M3A1 Stuart tanks which they nicknamed “Honey’s” during Operation Crusader. For the German side, “With Rommel in the Desert” by Heinz Werner Schmidt.
