"--The Age of Eisenhower is the definitive account of this presidency, drawing extensively on declassified material from the Eisenhower Library, the CIA and Defense Department, and troves of unpublished documents. In his masterful account, Hitchcock shows how Ike shaped modern America, and he astutely assesses Eisenhower's close confidants, from Attorney General Brownell to Secretary of State Dulles. The result is an eye-opening reevaluation that explains why this "do-nothing "president is rightly regarded as one of the best leaders our country has ever had. 000811792 60010 $$aEisenhower, Dwight D.$$q(Dwight David),$$d1890-1969$$xInfluence. 000811792 60010 $$aEisenhower, Dwight D.$$q(Dwight David),$$d1890-1969$$xBiography. 000811792 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xPolitics and government$$y1953-1961. 000811792 651_0 $$aUnited States$$xForeign relations$$y1953-1961. 000811792 655_7 $$aBiographies.$$2lcgft 000811792 830_0 $$aSimon & Schuster nonfiction original hardcover. 000811792 85200 $$bgen$$hE835$$i.H56$$i2018 000811792 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:811792$$pGLOBAL_SET 000811792 980__ $$aBIB 000811792 980__ $$aBOOK
