Historic Photos of Dwight D. Eisenhower

<p>Dwight David Eisenhower is famous as both a soldier and as a statesman. Like George Washington and Ulysses S. Grant Eisenhower the soldier commanded large American military forces and helped win a war that threatened his nation and then served his country as president.</p><p>Dwight Eisenhower's life is also the archetypal American story of the poor boy who rises as far as his talents and abilities enable him. "I like Ike" became a campaign slogan long after it was used to express the feelings of many of the people who met him in school worked with or served under him.</p><p>This book <em>Historic Photos of Dwight D. Eisenhower</em> chronicles Eisenhower's amazing life in nearly two hundred photographs. These images and text help explain why another president said "America will always be a better nation . . . because Ike was with us when America needed him."</p>
