( ) Retired Army officer and military historian, D'Este has written a comprehensive biography of Ike's military career. He begins with a brief family history and Dwight David's (Ike) humble birth in Denison, Texas. D'Este takes a balanced, critical view of Eisenhower http://www.ipl.org/div/potus/ddeisenhower.html detailing the strength and weaknesses of his military leadership and connecting to traits leading to his political success. My personal interest in reading about Ike's life began with knowledge that my maternal grandfather was a schoolmate (Grandfather Reade was four years older than Ike) of Ike's in Abilene http://www.baconlinks.com/DDE/DDE.html Kansas and that their families were neighbors and friends. Another connection, both the Eisenhower's and the Reade's had a brood of seven boys. (lj) geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
