Stories About Eisenhower

Famous leaders had a life. What shaped them? How did they handle the good and the bad things that came their way? What made them rise above the crowd and become persons we grew to admire? Who helped them along the way and who tried to block their progress?

We think a good way to answer these and many other questions about Dwight Eisenhower is to present a series of brief stories … none of them more than four pages and most of them much shorter … that tell us something important about him by describing episodes in his life.
