Item Details
Description
"Brothers, Rivals, Victors: Eisenhower, Patton, Bradley and the Partnership that Drove the Allied Conquest in Europe" by Jonathan W. Jordan, published by NAL Caliber, New American Library, a division of Penguin Group (USA). First Edition, First Printing with stated "First Printing, April 2011" and number '1' present in the line on copyright page.
Price un-clipped dust jacket, hard boards, gold lettering on spine; 6" x 9.1/4"; 654 pages including Index + one block with monochrome photographs on glossy paper, very good condition.
The intimate true story of three of the greatest American generals of World War II, and how their intense blend of comradery and competition spurred Allied forces to victory.
"One of the great stories of the American military." [Thomas E. Ricks]
"Full of fresh insight and compelling drama." [John C. McManus]
"This is an exceptional book… A must-have for any shelf of serious leadership texts." [Naval War College Review]
"Dwight Eisenhower, George Patton and Omar Bradley shared bonds going back decades. All three were West Pointers who pursued their army careers with a remarkable zeal, even as their paths diverged. Bradley was a standout infantry instructor, while Eisenhower displayed an unusual ability for organization and diplomacy. Patton, who had chased Pancho Villa in Mexico and led troops in the First World War, seemed destined for high command and outranked his two friends for years. But with the arrival of World War II, it was Eisenhower who attained the role of Supreme Commander, with Patton and Bradley as his subordinates."
"Adroit, skillful, eloquent discourse weaving the relationships, mishaps, dynamics, of Patton/Eisenhower/Bradley, and their respective motivations, ambitions, quirks. A unique synergism and interdependence exemplified by duty, persistence, restraint. As a WWII aficionado, the author expertly details the myriad challenges confronting the Allies."
