Duty, Honor, Country: The Life of Dwight D. Eisenhower

Description

Dwight D. Eisenhower lived his entire life by the West Point motto: Duty, Honor, Country. After growing up in the small town of Abilene, Kansas, he became a soldier at West Point, a Five Star General, Columbia University’s President, and finally, our 34th President of the United States. He was a man who could charm you one minute with his down-home attitude and broad grin, but in an instant, become a man of steel. Historian Jim Gibbons returns to Lake Bluff Library to share the life of the man known as “Ike.”
