(This is the story of a new Europe rising from the ashes o...)
This is the story of a new Europe rising from the ashes of despair - and of America's great adventure as leader of the Western world. It is one of the most hopeful books you will ever read, written from intimate knowledge of the persons and events described and with unswerving confidence in the free world's answer to the challenge of communism. The result is a book which will deepen your pride in being an American.

Stilwell Papers: An Iconoclastic Account of America's Adventures in China
( His American men worshipped him. The Chinese armies he ...)
His American men worshipped him. The Chinese armies he trained and led would have gone through hell for him. But the politicians, both in Chunk-King and Washington, hated his guts. And after two and a half years of bitter struggle in the China-Burma-India theater during the dog days of World War II, General Joseph W. Stilwell was abruptly relived of his command and brought back to the U.S. in an "atmosphere of crime."From the time he flew to the Far East to assume command of the handful of American forces in the C.B.I. theater until his recall in 1944, General Stilwell was engaged in one of the most complex, difficult, and confidential operations in American military history The Stilwell Papers-brilliantly edited and arranged by Theodore H. White, who knew the General in the C.B.I. theater-record Stilwell's on-the-spot account of the people and events of the moment with the salty directness of a man obligated to please no one but himself.But this book is not only an account of the various glories and frustrations of war; it is also the autobiography of one of America's greatest World War II commanders. General Stilwell was a strong, courageous man, deeply devoted to his country and charged with crucial responsibilities; and The Stilwell Papers is the deeply moving and striking self-portrait of that man and his struggle.

The making of the President, 1972
( In The Making of the President 1972, the fourth volume...)
In The Making of the President 1972, the fourth volume of narrative history of American politics in action, Theodore H. White brings his defining quartet of campaign narratives to a surprising and riveting close. The consummate journalist, White chronicles both the Democratic and the Republican parties as they jockeyed for position toward the end of Richard M. Nixons turbulent first term. He illuminates the cinematic moments that shaped the campaignthe attempt on George Wallaces life, Edmund Muskie crying in the snow in New Hampshire, the swift rise and fall of Tom Eagleton, and the ongoing anguish of Vietnamleading inexorably to a second chaotic collapse among the Democrats and a landslide victory for Nixon. Yet even as the presidents highest ambitions were confirmed, White watches aghast as the new Nixon of 1968 is eclipsed by the corrupt Nixon of olda Shakespearean conclusion to an astonishing political epoch.
