{"product_id":"9781476745879","title":"Eisenhower Volume II: The President","description":"\u003ci\u003eEisenhower: The President,\u003c\/i\u003e the second and concluding volume of Stephen Ambrose's brilliant biography, is the first assessment of a postwar President based on access to the entire record. It covers a wide range of subjects, including Eisenhower's rejection of the near-unanimous advice he received as President to use atomic weapons; his thinking on defense policy and the Cold War; his handling of a multitude of foreign-affairs crises; his attitudes and actions on civil rights; his views on Joseph McCarthy and on communism. Also illuminated are Eisenhower's relations with Nixon, Truman, Khrushchev, de Gaulle, and other world leaders. Ambrose provides us with an extraordinary portrait -- fairminded and enormously well-informed -- of the man, both decent and complex, who is increasingly regarded as one of the twentieth century's greatest Presidents.","brand":"Simon \u0026 Schuster","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47130663092464,"sku":"9781476745879","price":11.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781476745879_p0.jpg?v=1763609895","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781476745879","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
