{"product_id":"eisenhower-vs-warren-james-f-simon-9780871407559","title":"Eisenhower vs. Warren: The Battle for Civil Rights and Liberties","description":"The bitter feud between President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Chief Justice Earl Warren framed the tumultuous future of the modern civil rights movement. Eisenhower was a gradualist who wanted to coax white Americans in the South into eventually accepting integration, while Warren, author of the Supreme Court's historic unanimous opinion in \u003cem\u003eBrown v. Board of Education\u003c\/em\u003e, demanded immediate action to dismantle the segregation of the public school system. In \u003cem\u003eEisenhower vs. Warren\u003c\/em\u003e, two-time \u003cem\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/em\u003e Notable Book author James F. Simon examines the years of strife between them that led Eisenhower to say that his biggest mistake as president was appointing that \"dumb son of a bitch Earl Warren.\" This momentous, poisonous relationship is presented here at last in one volume. Compellingly written, \u003cem\u003eEisenhower vs. Warren\u003c\/em\u003e brings to vivid life the clash that continues to reverberate in political and constitutional debates today.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e James F.
