Acerca de esta escucha

A stirring exploration of our 34th president, Dwight D. Eisenhower.

From the time of his childhood in rural Kansas, Dwight D. Eisenhower's vision of himself and his country was one of confidence and hope. His hard-working parents taught him self-reliance and nothing that happened in his long career ever eroded this trait.

During nearly half a century of service to his country and the world, Eisenhower displayed a deep understanding of the nation's problems, aspirations, and fears that prevailed during both war and peace.

He possessed an ability to communicate with the American people in a remarkable way. They saw in him a man of sincerity and instructive good will, and they trusted him implicitly. And Eisenhower demonstrated these qualities to his countrymen again and again in full measure.

Excellent book with some over dramatic at times narration

Fascinating history of Eisenhower and the times in which he lived and served as President. Feedback to Audible: Although the “n” word is an ugly part of our country’s history, no white narrator needs to actually say it. I’d encourage you to make it a policy to use “n word” when reading text as opposed to the actual word. Made part of the experience very distasteful for me.

I LOVED THIS BOOK!

This book is factual, well referenced, and written by someone who knew and understood Dwight David Eisenhower. Ike will always be a hero to me and I appreciate this honest and decent account of his life. The narration is very good. If I were going to be picky, I would remind the reader, there is no “cow” in Moscow. So grateful to have this book in my library.

Leadership at its finest

Outstanding story of a life of dedicated service to our country. I wish we had more leaders like this today.

What a leader

This was an era that im afraid we will never have again. These leaders sacrificed everything for us to be free and prosperous.

Salute to an American icon and legend

A great man full of honor, duty, and love for Christ and country.

Biographies are always more interesting than history books, as history is the story of man.

Eisenhower climbed to the highest ranks of the government both militarily and politically. He was class personified and represented a gentler and more moral America.

He led the free world against Leftwing fascism and national socialism and defeated them. That was when America was about winning, instead of playing not to lose or worse, managed decline under established elites like it has been prior to Trump.

The only shortcoming of Eisenhower was not passing the Civil Rights Act during his presidency. If he could’ve done that, we might’ve avoided having Democrats succeed him, mainly Lyndon Johnson- a truly destructive and bad man.

He also didn’t use the bully pulpit of the presidency as much as he could’ve until later in his second term. As it stated in the book,

“A strong president is one who dominates Congress and the legislative process. A weak president merely proposes and let Congress dispose.”

Eisenhower showed me that the presidency takes a heavy burden on the one in that office, he had multiple health issues such as a stroke and heart attack as president.

I have no doubt Eisenhower earned his way into heaven, as he dedicated his life to protecting his faith, family, and flag. Rest in peace, soldier! We’ll take it from here 🇺🇸 🫡

A little hacky

Interesting, but not a deep book, and perhaps not well researched. Written in a 1950's style, what you might have been expected in a biography penned for junior high school students.

Horrible Reading

I am a fan of history but this was terrible. Ike was a much more nuanced character and this AP presentation does not do him justice.
