Crusade in Europe, Dwight D. Eisenhower

CRUSADE IN EUROPE by General Dwight D. Eisenhower (FIRST EDITION, 1948).

Not only is this book historically important, but is also a breathtaking adventure of a Kansas boy who found himself in the most responsible position in the world. As noted about the book: "After only a few pages, General Ike's own report to his fellow countrymen, and to history lets the reader knows he is in good hands, and that the General will not let him down." The book begins with a prelude to war and then covers so much more, from the Invasion of Africa, wintering in Algiers, Tunisia, Cairo, Italy, D-Day, autumn fighting on Germany's frontier, Hitler's last bid, crossing the Rhine, overrunning Germany, and victory's aftermath. There are color maps, text maps and many illustrations and photographs. A truly historical look at this important period from General Eisenhower's hands on experience.
