Stilwell
and the American Experience in China,1911-45
by Barbara W. Tuchman, introduction by John K. Fairbank
Barbara W. Tuchman won the Pulitzer
Prize for Stilwell and the American Experience in China, 1911-45
in 1972. She uses the life of Joseph Stilwell, the military attache to
China in 1935-39 and commander of United States forces and allied chief
of staff to Chiang Kai-shek in 1942-44, to explore the history of China
from the revolution of 1911 to the turmoil of World War II, when China's
Nationalist government faced attack from Japanese invaders and Communist
insurgents. Her story is an account of both American relations with China
and the experiences of one of our men on the ground. In the cantankerous
but level-headed "Vinegar Joe," Tuchman found a subject who allowed her
to perform, in the words of The National Review, "one of the historian's
most envied magic acts: conjoining a fine biography of a man with a fascinating
epic story." Amazon.com

The
Will to Win: The Life of General James A. Van Fleet
by Paul
F. Braim
Book Description: Called the Army's "greatest combat general" by President
Truman, James Van Fleet led American and allied forces to battlefield victory
during a career that spanned World War I and the Cold War. In this biography,
a military historian who once commanded a rifle company under Van Fleet
in Korea tells the legendary leader's unique story and draws parallels
to the U.S. Army's history of diverse challenges met in the twentieth century.
Defining the root of Van Fleet's success as devotion to his men and
dedication to rigorous field training and mental conditioning, Paul Braim
describes Van Fleet's ability to inspire his men with the will to win through
two world wars and in the limited wars that followed. He chronicles Van
Fleet's command of III Corps in its drive into the heart of Nazi Germany
in World War II and his training of allied soldiers in the Cold Wars, including
his development of the Greek National Army into a fighting force capable
of driving off a strong communist insurgency. He tells how as commander
of the Eighth Army in Korea Van Fleet applied his winning tactics so successfully
within the constraints of the limited war that the South Korean Army was
able to assume a major fighting role. Finally, he explains that Van Fleet
was one of few senior military leaders to argue for training the Vietnamese
instead of committing U.S. combat forces in Vietnam. This tribute to an
outstanding American--a poor boy from rural Florida who rose to the rank
of four-star general--will fascinate everyone who enjoys reading biographies
and those who like military history. It is presented in cooperation with
the Association of the U.S. Army.
