About This Item
(Subject: Political & Biographies - General) With full access to his private papers and letters, D'Este traces Eisenhower's meteoric rise to high command and identifies the complex character behind Ike's calm self-assurance. He reveals a man of surprising complexity: A born optimist who always expected to win. Eisenhower was a master manipulator who concealed sharp intelligence. In the hours before D-Day Ike seemed like the loneliest man in the world. As he remarked to Kay Summersby, "It's hard to look a soldier in the eye when you fear you are sending him to his death". (Published: 2003) (Publisher: Weidenfeld & Nicolson) (ISBN: 0304366048) (Pagination: 848pp, 50 b/w photos) (Condition: very good in d/w) UL-XXXXXX
