As it reveals the personalities behind the public images, it shows how much of a difference three men can make not only to a nation, but the world. \u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn the closing days of World War II, America looked up to three five-star generals as its greatest heroes. George C. Marshall, Dwight D. Eisenhower, and Douglas MacArthur personified victory, from the Pentagon to Normandy to the Far East. Counterparts and on occasion competitors, they had leapfrogged each other, sometimes stonewalled each other, even supported and protected each other throughout their celebrated careers. In the public mind they stood for glamour, integrity, and competence. But for dramatic twists of circumstance, all three--rather than only one--might have occupied the White House.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Stanley Weintraub\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0451223926\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780451223920\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Penguin Adult Hc\/Tr\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/06\/2008\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 576\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.36lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.05h x 5.98w x 1.23d","brand":"Stanley Weintraub","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44069602984191,"sku":"9780451223920","price":24.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_eda5fa1b-4a48-449c-939b-72a94cae1433.jpg?v=1685425553","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/15-stars-stanley-weintraub-9780451223920","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
