David Eisenhower, grandson of General and President Dwight D. Eisenhower, authored this Pulitzer Prize nominated book. Per the synopsis provided on the book's inner flaps: "Eisenhower at War will forever reshape our thinking about the Second World War in Europe and its legacy. It will also revise the established portraits of the wartime leaders: Roosevelt, Churchill, Marshall, Montgomery and, of course, Eisenhower himself, of whom his grandson draws a far more complex and subtle portrait than we have seen so far. Moreover, this book will force us to reconsider such presumably settled issues as the Teheran Conference, the Allied decision to invade France, the Market-Garden disaster, the "loss" of Warsaw, Berlin and Prague, the Yalta Conference and, above all, the Soviet role in the defeat of Germany and the Allied response to it."

Thank you so much for buying this book, I hope you enjoy it as much as one of my family members did...Oh, and if you buy one of grandma's books be aware that it might initially have a hint of "eau de mothball" until it acclimates to your home. She loves her mothballs!
