Description
|
|
|
|
Supreme Allied Commander Dwight D. Eisenhower, General George S. Patton, and General Omar N. Bradley engineered the Allied conquest that shattered Hitler's hold over Europe. But they also shared an intricate web of relationships going back decades, and in the cauldron of World War II they found their prewar friendships complicated by shifting allegiances, jealousy, insecurity, patriotism, and ambition. "[Jonathan] Jordan succeeds in bringing Patton, Brad and Ike to life once again. Brothers, Rivals, Victors is full of fresh insight and compelling drama. You will have trouble putting this book down."—John C. McManus "Fastidiously researched and deftly written, Jordan's work is compellingly authoritative and adds to our knowledge something that we have not had—a tale of the intertwined and sometimes discomforting relationships of three American heroes. There is no such thing as the last word on any part of our history, but Brothers, Rivals, Victors comes close."—Mark Perry
