Partners in Command : George Marshall and Dwight Eisenhower in War and Peace

A unique look at the complex relationship between two of America’s foremost World War II leaders The first book ever to explore the relationship between George Marshall and Dwight Eisenhower, Partners in Commandeloquently tackles a subject that has eluded historians for years. As Mark Perry charts the crucial impact of this duo on victory in World War II and later as they lay the foundation for triumph in the Cold War, he shows us an unlikely, complex collaboration at the heart of decades of successful American foreign policy—and shatters many of the myths that have evolved about these two great men and the issues that tested their alliance. As exciting to read as it is vitally informative, this work is a signal accomplishment.

Mark Perry is a military, intelligence, and foreign policy analyst. The author of six critically acclaimed books, his articles have appeared in The Washington Post, Los Angeles Times, St. Louis Post Dispatch, and Newsday. He has also appeared regularly on CNN-'s The International Hour and Special Assignment.
