An interesting perspective on the challenges of command the the people Eisenhower had to deal with. He was complimentary about almost everyone and even when he had disagreements with people, he was as nice as possible. He came across as someone who would stand firm for what he believed but do it as nicely as possible. He always seemed a bit like someone who stood around a lot, but this book showed me how important he was and how fit he was for the position. It could have used a little more personal touch, but it was written very soon after the war when it would have been easy to rub people the wrong way.
