Dust jacket in very good condition; light shelf & edge wear; bumps at corners; has been price clipped. * From the jacket flap, "". . .will forever reshape our thinking about the Second World War in Europe and about its legacy, the divided continent with which the world has lived precariously ever since. . . .will also revise the established portraits of the wartime leaders: Roosevelt, Churchill, Marshall, Montgomery and, of course, Eisenhower himself, of whom his grandson draws a far more complex and subtle portrait than we have seen so far. Moreover, this book will force us to reconsider such presumably settled issues as the Teheran Conference, the Allied decision to invade France, the Market-Garden disaster, the ""loss"" of Warsaw, Berlin and Prague, the Yalta Conference and, above all, the Soviet role in the defeat of Germany and the Allied response to it. . . .""
