1948ref. 193230Garden City NY: Doubleday & Company Inc. 1948. Inscribed to a D-Day commander First edition presentation copy inscribed by the author on the half-title "For Maj. Gen. Willard G. Wyman - Brilliant battle leader of World War II. With best wishes and warm regards from his comrade-in-arms and devoted friend. Dwight D. Eisenhower December 1948". Willard G. Wyman 1898-1969 first met Eisenhower at Fort Lewis in 1941. In Crusade in Europe Eisenhower names him among "an exceptionally keen group of men. whom I tried with some success to keep close to me throughout the ensuing war years" p. 9. Wyman served under Eisenhower in North Africa and played a leading role on D-Day. As assistant commander of the 1st Infantry Division he commanded their D-Day beachhead: his Distinguished Service Cross citation recorded "Brigadier General Wyman came ashore directly behind the leading wave of troops. Due to enemy action many organizational leaders had become casualties. With disregard for his own personal safety Brigadier General Wyman moved up and down the fire-swept beach personally directing the movement of the men and the vehicles which had landed. Under his direction the men were reorganized and successfully assaulted the enemy positions. The gallantry and outstanding leadership displayed by Brigadier General Wyman exemplify the highest traditions of the military forces of the United States". A year later commanding the 71st Infantry Division in which Eisenhower's son John served Wyman led the unit across the Rhine at Oppenheim and into Germany where it linked up with Soviet forces on the Enns River. He later commanded IX Corps in Korea and served as Commander in Chief NATO Land Forces South-East Europe 1952-54 and Sixth Army 1954-55. He retired in 1958 as commander of Continental Army Command with the rank of four-star general. Octavo. With 16 plates 4 double-page maps 38 full-page maps in text.

1946ref. 190508Washington DC: US Government Printing Office 1946. Presented to his "oldest and best friend" a key commander at D-Day First edition presentation copy specially bound for Leonard T. Gerow and inscribed by Eisenhower on the initial blank "To 'Gee' one of the outstanding battle leaders of World War II with the admiration and gratitude of his old friend Ike". Gerow 1888-1972 was in command of the V Corps at Omaha Beach on D-Day and became the first American general to enter Paris after its liberation in 1944. "Gerow was his oldest and best friend in the theater and V Corps headquarters would provide a haven in moments of anxiety more than once" Eisenhower p. 176. The careers of the two men were closely intertwined. "Eisenhower and Gerow were opposites. Gerow trim and meticulous was a chronic worrier. Eisenhower hale and robust had a gregarious and confident manner. But the two men shared similar thinking and tastes and had similar prewar professional reputations as staff officers. In the summer of 1916 Eisenhower and Gerow had first served together in the 19th Regiment based at San Antonio. In 1926 they had been classmates at the Leavenworth Command and General Staff School. They had formed a two-man study group in Eisenhower's tiny attic" Eisenhower pp. 176-7. It was Gerow that introduced Eisenhower to his future wife Mamie. Gerow originally headed the War Plans Division until the role was reassigned to Eisenhower due to Gerow's failure to foresee Pearl Harbour. Eisenhower was gracious to Gerow acknowledging it was only fortune that led to his taking the position; afterwards Eisenhower's career was to inevitably eclipse that of his old friend but Gerow still rose to a highly respected position eventually leading the Fifteenth and Second Armies. The book prints Eisenhower's official report of his role leading the Allied liberation of western Europe and the defeat of Nazi Germany. Eisenhower had copies bound for presentation to close family and military leaders the Eisenhower library have his brother's copy in the same binding; we could trace no other example on the market. Folio. With 11 colour maps of European battle theatres. Original black morocco front cover lettered in gilt silk endpapers. Housed in a custom black cloth solander box. Spine and front inner hinge neatly repaired light rubbing and wear at extremities. A very good copy. David Eisenhower Eisenhower at War 1986. hardcover
