Abstract

Dwight D. Eisenhower’s greatest achievement as president came in the area of foreign policy and related de- fense matters. In the making and man- aging of strategic policy he was a strong, active, and effective leader. This book is an uneven collection of essays devoted to Eisenhower’s presidential influence on foreign policy and national security, essays that were presented at a sympo- sium held in January 2005 at the Na- tional Defense University.
