The Eisenhower Years (Presidential Profiles)

"The 34th president of the United States, Dwight D. Eisenhower won over Americans with his irresistible "I like Ike" slogan and brought to the presidency his prestige as a commanding general during World War II. Eisenhower worked diligently during his two terms to ease the tensions of the cold war. Pursuing the moderate policies of "modern Republicanism," he left a legacy of a stronger and more powerful nation." "The Eisenhower Years focuses on the administration of President Eisenhower and includes a section of more than 500 entries covering all the key personalities of the era. In addition, there is a chronology of contemporary events; a sizable appendix that includes important documents, such as inaugural addresses and presidential speeches; tables listing the members of the White House staff, cabinet members, members of Congress and the Senate; and more."--Jacket.
