Beloved as a World War II hero, Dwight D. Eisenhower was for many years considerably less appreciated as a president. He was viewed as a lazy and ineffectual statesman, a 'do-nothing' who relied on men like Sherman Adams and John Foster Dulles to conduct national affairs.
Reviews
A judicious and cogent vindication of Eisenhower's prudent and moderate conduct of statecraft during his two terms. * Stephen J. Whitfield, Brandeis University *
This excellent survey by a distinguished diplomatic historian represents an important contribution to the ongoing process of Eisenhower revisionism. * History: Reviews of New Books *
Those who are concerned with present policy and its consequences will find these essays provocative. * Military Review *
