Orion, 2003, Hardcover, Book Condition: Fine Condition, Dust Jacket Condition: Near Fine, First Edition
Clean bright unmarked pages; unclipped jacket with only slight wear along the upper edge. In a superbly paced narrative, based on outstanding research, D'Este, an accomplished military historian, provides the best account yet of Eisenhower's army career. The book is unlikely to be bettered... D'Este sensibly makes no attempt to engage in armchair theorising about military strategy. Instead he offers a detailed and meticulously researched chronology, which is always offset by a sensitively drawn portrait of Eisenhower's psychology and private life... splendid biography...
