Supreme Commander: The War Years of Dwight D. Eisenhower by Stephen E. Ambrose,

Supreme Commander: The War Years of Dwight D. Eisenhower by Stephen E. Ambrose,
In North Africa, on the beaches at Normandy, and in the Battle of the Bulge, Dwight David Eisenhower proved himself as one of the world's greatest military leaders. Faced with conciliating or disagreeing with such stormy figures as Churchill, Roosevelt, and DeGaulle, and generals like Montgomery and Patton, General Eisenhower showed himself to be as skillful a diplomat as he was a strategist. Stephen E. Ambrose, associate editor of the General's official papers, analyzes his subject's decisions in The Supreme Commander, which Double-day first published in 1970. Throughout the book Ambrose traces the steady development of Eisenhower's generally -- from its dramatic beginnings through his time at the top post of Allied command. The New York Times Book Review said of The Supreme Commander, "It is Mr. Ambrose's special triumph that he has been able to fight through the memoranda, the directives, plans, reports, and official self-serving pieties of the World War II establishment to uncover the idiosyncratic people at its center....General Dwight Eisenhower comes remarkably alive....(Ambrose's) angle of sight is so fresh and lively that one reads as if one did not know what was coming next. It is better than that: One does know what's coming next -- not only the winning of a war but the making of a general -- but the interest is in seeing how." This study of Eisenhower's role in the world's biggest war is absorbing as reading and unvaluable as a reference.



Eisenhower's Atoms for Peace by IRA Chernus,
Eisenhower's Atoms for Peace by IRA Chernus,
On July 16, 1945, the United States set off the world's first atomic explosion. In his "Atoms for Peace" speech of 1953, President Dwight D. Eisenhower captured the tensions -- and the ironies -- of the atomic age. While nuclear devastation threatened all nations, Eisenhower believed only nuclear preparedness offered protection; while nuclear weapons loomed as the ultimate war cloud, nuclear power offered progress and hope. In this consideration of Eisenhower's speech and others leading up to it, Ira Chernus views the "Atoms for Peace" speech, presented to the General Assembly of the United Nations, not merely as a legitimation of American foreign policy but as itself an act of policy. Indeed, he frames the policy in a new interpretation of Eisenhower's broad discursive goal, which he calls "apocalypse management, " a plan to allow the United States to manage threats and crises around the world. The full text of Eisenhower's speech is presented in this volume. Chernus sheds new light on the internal consistency of Eisenhower's thought, which many observers have found inconsistent, as well as on the ways in which the president's rhetoric backed him into a policy corner he had not intended to occupy. Chernus also reviews the domestic impact of the speech through a detailed examination of media interpretations in the United States. This tightly reasoned, clearly written study offers a new understanding of the evolution of Cold War nuclear policy, the power of presidential rhetoric, and the political understanding of America's "man of peace, " Dwight D. Eisenhower.
