Inscription reads To Doug Romagnoli With best wishes for a full life. David Eisenhower October 11 1986. This book focuses on Eisenhower's conduct of the war and provides an extensively documented analysis of the political ramifications of the course of the war and Eisenhower's decisions. Dwight David Eisenhower II born March 31 1948 is an American author public policy fellow professor at the University of Pennsylvania and eponym of the U.S. presidential retreat Camp David. He is the grandson of President Dwight D. Eisenhower and First Lady Mamie Eisenhower and a son-in-law of President Richard Nixon and First Lady Pat Nixon. He was a teaching adjunct and public policy fellow at the Annenberg School for Communication at the University of Pennsylvania author and co-chair of the Foreign Policy Research Institute's History Institute for Teachers. From 2001 to 2003 he was editor of Orbis a quarterly published by the institute. Eisenhower was a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize in history in 1987 for his work Eisenhower At War 1943-1945 about the Allied leadership during World War II. He was the host of a public television series called The Whole Truth with David Eisenhower distributed by American Public Television. Derived from a Kirkus review: The younger Eisenhower has spent some six years on this project covering only a three-year period in Ike's career. Eisenhower: At War is a work of dignified completely researched history. Three decades after Eisenhower's presidency a spate of books is being published on issues of his era or about the man. David's view is that Eisenhower's experiences in WW II were the clay he molded into his overall world view which is ultimately crucial to the understanding of his presidency. Eisenhower saw Russia's isolation as a danger to the postwar world and spent the next 15 years of his public life attempting to defuse the Cold War. When his attempts failed he warned his citizens of the consequences especially as they related to the "military-industrial complex." David Eisenhower's special status in being able to call upon his own father for firsthand information and on his father-in-law Richard Nixon's expertise in foreign matters has helped him to produce a very solid work. It is a secondary source but his interpretations are full of acumen and he doesn't shrink from uncomfortable topics such as Eisenhower's decision to allow Montgomery to go ahead with his Market Garden attack even when Ike knew that it was doomed in order to finally dispose of Monty's challenges to his authority. Nepotism in the pursuit of biography is no vice. Random House hardcover
2020réf. 87000New York: Thomas Dunne Books 2020. Fourth printing stated. Hardcover. Very good/Very good. Miranda Harple Author photograph. 12 387 1 pages. Illustrations. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Signed by the author on the title page. Susan Elaine Eisenhower born December 31 1951 is an American consultant author and expert on international security space policy energy and relations between the Russian Federation and the United States of America. She is the daughter of John Eisenhower and the granddaughter of President Dwight D. Eisenhower. Eisenhower is President of the Eisenhower Group Inc which provides strategic counsel on political business and public affairs projects. She has consulted for Fortune 100 and Fortune 500 companies doing business in the emerging markets of the former Soviet Union and for a number of major institutions engaged in the energy field. She is also Chairman of Leadership and Public Policy Programs and Chairman Emeritus of the Eisenhower Institute a think tank based in Washington D.C. and in Gettysburg Pennsylvania owned and operated by Gettysburg College. Eisenhower served as the president of the Eisenhower Institute twice and later as chair. During that time she became known for her work in the former Soviet Union and in the energy field. In January 2010 Secretary of Energy Steven Chu appointed Eisenhower to serve on the Blue Ribbon Commission on America's Nuclear Future which has been asked to develop a long-term solution for safely managing the back end of the nuclear fuel cycle. Derived from a Kirkus review: A granddaughter of the 34th president celebrates his life and accomplishments. The author who published a memoir Mrs. Ike 1996 about her grandmother turns her attention to her grandfather in this amalgam of biography memoir and history. She celebrates his remarkable life noting his humility and "intellectual honesty" and how he was "transparent and accountable" to the public and possessed a "determination to put the country first." The author is clearly determined to remind readers of his many accomplishments—not only in World War II he organized D-Day among many other operations but during the eight years of his presidency 1953-1961. She credits him for laying the groundwork for civil rights—e.g. he sent the 101st Airborne to Little Rock to facilitate school integration—balancing budgets keeping us out of war working hard to get the U.S. into space refusing to attack his critics in public and declining to diminish himself by responding to Sen. Joseph McCarthy and later to the Democrats who tried to use the early Soviet space achievements for a political advantage. She shows him as an empathetic family man with a strong moral compass. In the epilogue the author attacks the tribalism poisoning our current political climate. A patent paean to a beloved grandfather and his military political and family achievements.
