Partners in Command

George Marshall and Dwight Eisenhower in War and Peace

De: Mark Perry

Narrado por: James Anderson Foster

A unique look at the complex relationship between two of America's foremost World War II leaders.  

The first book ever to explore the relationship between George Marshall and Dwight Eisenhower, Partners in Command eloquently tackles a subject that has eluded historians for years. As Mark Perry charts the crucial impact of this duo on victory in World War II and later as they lay the foundation for triumph in the Cold War, he shows us an unlikely, complex collaboration at the heart of decades of successful American foreign policy - and shatters many of the myths that have evolved about these two great men and the issues that tested their alliance. 

As compelling as it is vitally informative, this work is a signal accomplishment.

interesting perspective to see wwii

I enjoyed seeing the action of WWII through the filter of Marshall and Ike relationship. gave me added perspective on the greatness of both men, especially George Marshall.

How Two Generals Balanced Competing Adgendas

So detailed I kept replaying segments to follow the comlpex relationship of two great generals, their subordinates, the politics of Roosevelt and Churchill, and the maneuvering of the armies. A facinating historical work.

History we forget at our peril.

Well researched. A book that brings together all the major events of WW2 through the eyes of the generals that forged a winning alliance against tyranny.

Insight to one of the most important relationships of WW2.

If Marshall and Eisenhower could not work together, the war in Europe was doomed. Their single mindedness in unity of command, the priority of the cross channel invasion drove the allies to victory. In this volume, the focus on their relationship is a unique insight.

Insightful perspective!

I have read many books about George Marshall and I enjoyed and found this book enlightening and a source of new information with a very interesting perspective from Mark Perry. It is well written and well worth your time!
