JAMES : The years of MacArthur ; vol. 3 (fülszöveg)
This final volume brings to completion the biography of one of our country's most remarkable military figures, a power in three major wars—Douglas MacArthur. Controversy followed him wherever he went and never more than in the most effective and least understood period of his life, from 1945 to 1964. D. Clayton James throws a brilliant light on MacArthur's years as the supreme ruler of a conquered Japan, and shows how that modern nation grew out of the reforms of MacArthur's day. He reveals at last the true story of MacArthur's handling of the Korean War and of the conflicts of principle and personality that caused President Truman to fire him as Far Eastern commander.
James has written a fully rounded and believable portrait of a complex and powerful man, facing the supreme challenges of his life.
