reviewed 15 Stars: Eisenhower, MacArthur, Marshall: Three Generals Who Saved the American Century on + 6 more book reviews
This is a collective biography for the three named WWII generals and their interactions. Commencing with Pearl Harbor through the deaths of Marshall and MacArthur the interactions are showcased. George Marshall is presented in a most favorable light. Dwight Eisenhower is presented as a competent general but having a p.r. problem with his "driver" Kay Summersby. Douglas MacArthur is presented in quite an unflattering view.

The book is well written and easy to read.
