| Abstract: | Exploring Eisenhower's Formative Years Becoming Eisenhower: How Ike Rose from Obscurity to Supreme Allied Commander Michael Lee Lanning Stackpole Books. 288 pages. $29.95 While World War II has faded from living memory and the Eisenhower presidency is not too far behind it, the legacy and historical reputation of Dwight Eisenhower continues to rise. Whereas scholarship on Eisenhower's exemplary service as Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force during World War II and his presidential administration is legion, comparatively few published works have focused on Eisenhower's military career before his assumption of high command. At a time when too many books have become longer than they need to be, this is a quick and lively read, a rather remarkable feat considering that its focus is on the part of Eisenhower's career during which not many momentous events occurred. |
