Yanks: The Epic Story of the American Army in World War I

Yanks: The Epic Story of the American Army in World War I -- A unique perspective on one of history's greatest leaders--by an acclaimed military historian and the man who knew Ike best--his son John. Dwight D. Eisenhower had two careers: before he was one of America's most popular presidents, he was its greatest military commander. His military career lasted much longer, and--according to his son--was far more important to him personally. Nobody is in a better position to tell the story of General Ike than John Eisenhower, who was by Ike's side for much of it, and who had a military and diplomatic career of his own before retiring to write seminal and bestselling works of military history. General Ike is a revealing and brilliantly crafted study of what makes a great leader. Telling the story of Ike's military career as a series of stories of his relationships with generals--Pershing, Patton, MacArthur--and statesmen--De Gaulle, Churchill--the author shows why Ike was the right man at the right time to lead the Allies to victory in Africa and Europe. Drawing on scenes witnessed by few others and private comments made to him by his father, John Eisenhower shows how his father's keen mind, great sense of the strengths of others and perseverance combined to make America victorious. Here is a Father's Day gift from a son to his departed great father.
