YORKE HUMANITIES LIBRARIAN UNITED STATES MILITARYACADEMY LIBRARY 1990 FOREWORD Dwight David Eisenhower graduated from the United States Military Academy as a member of the class of 1915, "the class the stars fell on." He went on to have a career, both military and civilian, that ranks among that select group of the most distinguished of all the gradu- ates of the Academy. October 14, 1990 marks the one hundredth anniversary of his birth. In commemoration of this event, I, on behalf of the United States Military Academy Library, have prepared this bibliography of materials about this extraordinary man and his career. HOLBROOK W.

President Eisenhower is concerned that the costs are not Communist sustainable over the long term but he believes that the spread of Communism must be stopped. Expansionism? On May 8, 1953, President Dwight D. Eisenhower has called a meeting in the Solarium of the White House with Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and Treasury Secretary George M. Humphrey. The President believes that the best way to craft a national policy in a democracy is to bring people together to assess the options. In this meeting the President makes a proposal based on his personal decision-making process—one that is grounded in exhaustive fact gathering, an open airing of the full range of viewpoints, and his faith in the clarifying qualities of energetic debate. Why not, he suggests, bring together teams of “bright young fellows,” charged with the mission to fully vet all viable policy alternatives? He envisions a culminating presentation in which each team will vigorously advocate for a particular option before the National Security Council.

    Crusade in Europe Dwight D. Eisenhower Doubleday & Company, Inc., New York, 1948 Signed by Dwight and Mamie Eisenhower, Churchill, Truman, Marshall, MacArthur and fifteen other iconic wartime leaders with an extraordinary correspondence archive chronicling the campaign to secure the signatures between 1949 and 1957 This ranks among the most compelling pieces of Second World War memorabilia we have seen – a truly singular copy of the limited edition of Eisenhower’s war memoirs, signed by two American presidents, two British prime ministers, three U.S. secretaries of state, a first lady, thirteen legendary U.S. generals (one of whom became a president), and a British Field Marshal. Among the twenty-one signatories are two Nobel Peace Prizes recipients, two Congressional Medal of Honor recipients, and more honorifics and awards than can plausibly be enumerated. Equally extraordinary is the accompanying archive of correspondence detailing how these signatures were collected by a Second World War veteran with remarkable persistence, resourcefulness, and no small amount of luck over a period of nearly a decade. ______________________________________________________________________________ Churchill Book Collector San Diego, CA, USA www.churchillbookcollector.com [email protected] 619-384-7992 The Signatures The signatures gathered in this book come from an unprecedented assemblage of civilian and military leaders who made the history that this book chronicles. ______________________________________________________________________________ Churchill Book Collector San Diego, CA, USA www.churchillbookcollector.com [email protected] 619-384-7992 The signatories include: Henry Harley “Hap” Arnold Bernard Mannes Baruch Omar Nelson Bradley James Francis “Jimmy” Byrnes Sir Winston Leonard Spencer Churchill Mark Wayne Clark Lucius DuBignon Clay James Harold “Jimmy” Doolittle Robert Anthony Eden, 1st Earl of Avon Dwight David Eisenhower Mamie Doud Eisenhower Leonard Townsend Gerow Cordell Hull Douglas MacArthur George Catlett Marshall, Jr.

    ROBINSON, WILLIAM E.: Papers, 1935-69

    DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER LIBRARY ABILENE, KANSAS ROBINSON, WILLIAM E.: Papers, 1935-69 William E. Robinson held positions as a newspaper executive with the New York Evening Journal (1933-36) and the New York Herald Tribune (1936-54), directed his own public relations firm of Robinson-Hannegan Associates (1954-55), and served as president and chairman of the board of Coca-Cola, Inc. (1955-61). In addition to having a long and distinguished career in business, Mr. Robinson also enjoyed a long and close personal friendship with Dwight D. Eisenhower, dating from their first meeting in World War II until their deaths in 1969. Mr. Robinson’s papers reflect both his business career and, especially, his association with Dwight D. Eisenhower. Mr. Robinson first met General Eisenhower in 1944 when the former was in Europe to reestablish publication of the Herald Tribune’s European edition. Their association became more intimate in 1947 when Mr. Robinson prevailed upon the General to write his World War II memoirs. According to arrangements worked out by Mr. Robinson, General Eisenhower’s Crusade in Europe came out in the fall of 1948, published in book form by Doubleday and syndicated to newspapers worldwide by the Herald Tribune. The two men were drawn together by a great admiration and respect for each other’s ideas and judgments, and an abiding common passion for playing bridge and golf. It was Mr. Robinson, in the spring of 1948 after the General had finished drafting his memoirs, who first introduced the Eisenhowers to Augusta National Golf Club. When General Eisenhower became president of Columbia University in New York City, the two had frequent occasions to play bridge together and to enjoy a game of golf at Blind Brook Golf Club where Mr.

    The Merchants of Death

    THE MERCHANTS OF DEATH The Military-Industrial Complex and the Influence on Democracy Name: Miriam Collaris Student number: 387332 Erasmus University Rotterdam Master thesis: Global History & International Relations Supervisor: Prof. Wubs Date: June 12th, 2016 Merchants of Death Miriam Collaris Erasmus University Rotterdam June 12, 2016 PREFACE This is a thesis about the Military-industrial Complex in the United States of America, a subject, which has been widely discussed in the 1960s, but has moved to the background lately. I got inspired by this subject through an internship I have done in Paris in 2012. Here I was working for an event agency that organized business conventions for the defense and security sector, and in particular the aerospace industry. This was the first time I got in touch with this defense industry and this was the first moment that I realized how much money is involved in this sector. Warfare turned out to be real business. At the conventions enormous stands emerged with the most advanced combat vehicles and weaponry. These events were focused on matchmaking between various players in this sector. Hence, commercial deals were made between government agencies and the industry, which was very normal and nobody questioned this. When I read about this Military-industrial Complex, years later, I started to think about these commercial deals between government and industry and the profits that were gained. The realization that war is associated with profits, interested me in such a way that I decided to write my master

    April 21 Bulletin

    April 21 Bulletin Bulletin April 21, 2021 Greetings! This issue of the Bulletin features previews of two upcoming events, member news and new resources that we hope you will enjoy. Our top stories this week include: A recap of our April 16 book night with John Maxwell Hamilton about his book, Manipulating the Masses: Woodrow Wilson and the Birth of American Propaganda. OPC Past President Bill Holstein has summarized a recent donation of about 40 books with ties to club and member history. To kick off a series of mini-reviews from the archive, he wrote about a book called Deadline Delayed. We published a remembrance page on April 20 to recognize the 10- year anniversary of the deaths of Tim Hetherington and Chris Hondros, who were both OPC Award winners. Happy reading! John Maxwell Hamilton Examines the Birth and Legacy of American Propaganda https://myemail.constantcontact.com/April-21-Bulletin.html?soid=1102853718750&aid=wovt-DSkyW0[5/18/2021 1:21:59 PM] April 21 Bulletin by Chad Bouchard In April 1917, just two weeks after the United States joined World War I, President Woodrow Wilson launched a mass propaganda agency with unchecked power and sweeping influence to support the war and mislead the public. A new book by OPC member John Maxwell Hamilton examines the history of the Committee on Public Information, known as the CPI, how its legacy “managed to shoot propaganda through every capillary of the American blood system,” and set the stage for U.S. government media manipulation over the last century. On April 16, Hamilton discussed the book, Manipulating the Masses: Woodrow Wilson and the Birth of American Propaganda, with OPC Past President Allan Dodds Frank.
