Pratt, Fletcher | November 27, 1948 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents information on a book "Crusade in Europe," by Dwight D. Eisenhower. Nothing emerges more clearly from Eisenhower's account than the utter sincerity and straightforwardness of the man. The questions that arise around this book are those of how leadership as inspired as Eisenhower's can exercise its full range and capacity in such circumstances, a range and capacity whose need would seem to increase with the size of the unit. No one can miss the range of Eisenhower's mind, his ability to look past details and grasp the large picture. Eisenhower always made his decision on the purest, even the narrowest military grounds and referred all overruling considerations to Washington.
