Carbon copy typescript of Eisenhower's memoir of the WWII European campaign Crusade in Europe.

It was by Robinson's insistence that Eisenhower wrote these memoirs. The typescript differs little from the first published edition with the following edits being the most significant: Chapters 16 and 17 in the typescript "Pursuit" and "Battle of Supply" are arranged with slight modification in the published edition as "Pursuit and the Battle of Supply" chapter 16 and "Autumn Fighting of Germany's Frontier" chapter 17. Chapters 22 and 23 "Europe after V-E Day" and "Russia" are also re-arranged in the published edition as "Victory's Aftermath" chapter 22 "Operation Study" chapter 23 and "Russia" chapter 24. The final paragraph of the typescript does not appear in the published edition and is replaced by an eight paragraph discussion of the merits of democracy in facing the growing threat of Communism. After a gentlemen's agreement on Dec 30 1947 Eisenhower began work on the first draft of Crusade in Europe completing it March 29 1948. This draft was finished July 4 of that year and a final typescript now at Columbia University was produced before the book was published in the fall of 1948. With a copy of the published book.

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
