Produktbeskrivning
Dwight D. Eisenhower is one of America’s greatest and least appreciated presidents.
Behind the demeanour that made Dwight D. “Ike” Eisenhower so popular was a cold-as-steel intelligence that kept his country prosperous and out of danger.
Because his operating methods were so deeply hidden, it is only in the past few decades that historians have grasped the full extent of his achievements.
Ike in Love and War shows the hidden sacrifices that made Eisenhower remarkable. It probes the mission that was driving him: the quest to reconcile his skill as a fighter with his mother’s pacifism, which led him to become the greatest peacekeeper of his age.
More than other biographies, this one explores the man’s emotions.
It puts the long-standing dispute about his romance with Kay Summersby in a new perspective: tragedy.
Here is the story of a unique American, the passion and brilliance he kept concealed, the ambition that propelled him, the sacrifices that wore down his health, and the sheer self-mastery that made it all look easy.
It never was.
His achievements are timely as Americans face unprecedented dangers.
This is the story of the world Ike made, the things he achieved, and the surprises that may still be in store for us as we strive to understand his life in full.
