Zusammenfassung: | "A Team of Rivals for World War II, here is the inside story of how FDR and the towering personalities around him waged war in the corridors of Washington D.C. to secure ultimate victory on the battlefields of Europe and the Pacific. Faced with the unprecedented challenges posed by a global war against entrenched and implacable totalitarian forces, Franklin Delano Roosevelt surrounded himself with a colorful group of strong-minded counselors, including Army Chief of Staff George Marshall, Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Secretary of War Henry Stimson, power broker James Byrnes, Chief of Naval Operations Ernest King, the ubiquitous Harry Hopkins, and many others. Given these forceful personalities and their equal dedication to the war effort, vicious clashes and Machiavellian maneuvering were inevitable. The outcome at many critical junctures turned on a dime. With unprecedented scope and intimacy, based on exhaustive research and newly discovered sources, The Washington War by renowned military historian James Lacey delivers fresh insights into FDR's innermost circles--and the fascinating behind-the-scenes machinations and power plays that won the greatest war in history"-- |

Faced with the unprecedented challenges posed by a global war against entrenched and implacable totalitarian forces, Franklin Delano Roosevelt surrounded himself with a colorful group of strong-minded counselors, including Army Chief of Staff George Marshall, Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau, Secretary of War Henry Stimson, power broker James Byrnes, Chief of Naval Operations Ernest King, the ubiquitous Harry Hopkins, and many others. Given these forceful personalities and their equal dedication to the war effort, vicious clashes and Machiavellian maneuvering were inevitable. The outcome at many critical junctures turned on a dime. With unprecedented scope and intimacy, based on exhaustive research and newly discovered sources, The Washington War by renowned military historian James Lacey delivers fresh insights into FDR's innermost circles--and the fascinating behind-the-scenes machinations and power plays that won the greatest war in history"-- Morgenthau, Henry 1891-1967 (DE-588)118736930 gnd rswk-swf King, Ernest J. 1878-1956 (DE-588)119051532 gnd rswk-swf Stimson, Henry Lewis 1867-1950 (DE-588)11879891X gnd rswk-swf Marshall, George C. 1880-1959 (DE-588)118731211 gnd rswk-swf Roosevelt, Franklin D. 1882-1945 (DE-588)118602551 gnd rswk-swf Politik (DE-588)4046514-7 gnd rswk-swf Regierung (DE-588)4049012-9 gnd rswk-swf Zweiter Weltkrieg (DE-588)4079167-1 gnd rswk-swf USA (DE-588)4078704-7 gnd rswk-swf Roosevelt, Franklin D. / (Franklin Delano) / 1882-1945 Roosevelt, Franklin D. / (Franklin Delano) / 1882-1945 / Military leadership Roosevelt, Franklin D. / (Franklin Delano) / 1882-1945 / Friends and associates Marshall, George C. / (George Catlett) / 1880-1959 Morgenthau, Henry / 1891-1967 Stimson, Henry L. / (Henry Lewis) / 1867-1950 Byrnes, James F. / (James Francis) / 1882-1972 King, Ernest Joseph / 1878-1956 Hopkins, Harry L. / (Harry Lloyd) / 1890-1946 Cabinet officers / United States World War, 1939-1945 / United States United States / Politics and government / 1933-1945 World War (1939-1945) Cabinet officers Command of troops Friendship Politics and government United States 1933-1945 Biographies USA (DE-588)4078704-7 g Politik (DE-588)4046514-7 s Regierung (DE-588)4049012-9 s Zweiter Weltkrieg (DE-588)4079167-1 s DE-604 Roosevelt, Franklin D. 1882-1945 (DE-588)118602551 p King, Ernest J. 1878-1956 (DE-588)119051532 p Morgenthau, Henry 1891-1967 (DE-588)118736930 p Marshall, George C. 1880-1959 (DE-588)118731211 p Stimson, Henry Lewis 1867-1950 (DE-588)11879891X p |
