Illustrated with map and photographs, throughout. Index. Bound in the original blue cloth, lettered in shiny gold on the spine. From the Foreword by Robert M. White II, President, MacArthur Memorial Foundation: "Nobody has written a book like this about General MacArthur. That's because nobody could. Nobody else was as close to the General during those tragic and glory years of World War II. Was General MacArthur really that hard to know? -- Not as an officer, not as a commander. He was what he was, as a soldier -- tall, handsome, sure, keen, articulate, with awesome presence. But there was a difference between MacArthur the commander and the man. As a man, he kept to himself; he was withdrawn somehow, at arm's length, even remote. All of which adds up to being. shy. I hesitate to use the word, but that is the way he seemed." . INSCRIBED / SIGNED by Robert M. White. First Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good condition./Very Good dust jacket. 8vo. (xii), 242pp.…

Description de la boutique

About Books [Genny and Michael Winne, proprietors, formerly of Parsippany, New Jersey) has been selling rare and out of print books since 1985. Besides book fairs and mail order catalogue, long-time collectors and dealers will remember our lengthy For Sale ads in the Antiquarian Bookman and similar magazines. Our inventory of more than 40,000 volumes is especially strong in the specialities listed, but contains fine books in a variety of other fields as well. Because most of our books are stored in protective boxes, rather than on shelves, they cannot be viewed as a whole. If you want to examine specific titles, please provide 24 hours notice and we will make them available for your inspection. Phone calls to (702) 750-2722 are welcome, but please only between the hours of 8am and 10pm, west coast time. Our phone is a landline that cannot receive texts.…
