In this judicious portrait of a courageous general and deeply-flawed man, commonly ranked as either one of the world's greatest generals or greatest examples of cowardice, military historian Connaughton seeks out the truth between these extremes. Digging into MacAuthor's personal life and political relationships, as well as the strategic play leading up to the Japanese attack, this is a fascinating study of the crisis of leadership as well as a focused study of one of the pivotal moments in WWII. A powerful, terrible story, told in exacting detail' - Kirkus (STARRED)' Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |

For many, Douglas MacArthur was a general to be ranked with Grant and Lee; for others he was much bluster and some cowardice. The truth, according to military historian Richard Connaughton, lies somewhere in the middle. MacArthur and Defeat in the Philippines is a judicious and hard-headed portrait of a courageous general and deeply flawed man.
