Near fine in very good jacket. Jacket edges lightly rubbed with an 1/8 inch chip from rear edge jacket price clipped. 1948 Hard Cover. xiv 559 pp. 8vo. Map illustrated endpapers. Photographs and maps throughout. Maps by Rafael Palacios. Five-star General Dwight D. Eisenhower was arguably the single most important military figure of World War II. For many historians his memoirs of this eventful period of U.S. history have become the single most important record of the war. Crusade in Europe tells the complete story of the war as Eisenhower planned and lived it. Through his eyes the enormous scope and drama of the war - strategy battles moments of fateful decision - become fully illuminated in all their fateful glory. Yet this is also a warm and richly human account. Ike recalls the long months of waiting planning and working toward victory in Europe. His personal record of the tense first hours after he had issued the order to attack - and there was no turning back - leaves no doubt of Eisenhower's travail and reveals this great man in ways that no biographer has ever surpassed.

Naturally it is not the whole story. It is only the story of a fairly small group of young men among those most hurt in body and mind by the accidents of war. But somehow putting down the war experiences that affected them most these young men have uncovered a much larger segment of the reality of our time than they themselves seem to have been aware of."--John Dos Passos ; details of each serviceman and his unit included ; authors include: Joe V.
