توضیحاتی درمورد کتاب به خارجی
The Civil War and the World War II stand as the two great
cataclysms of American history. They were our two costliest
wars, with well over a million casualties suffered in each. And
they were transforming moments in our history as well, times
when the life of the nation and the great experiment in
democracy--government of the people, by the people, for the
people--seemed to hang in the balance. Now, in War Comes
Again, eleven eminent historians--including three Pulitzer
Prize winners, all veterans of the Second World War--offer an
illuminating comparison of these two epic events in our
national life.
The range of essays here is remarkable, the level of insight
consistently high, and the quality of the writing is superb.
For instance, Stephen Ambrose, the bestselling author of
D-Day, June 6th, 1944, offers an intriguing comparison
of the two great military leaders of each war--Grant and
Eisenhower. Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Robert V. Bruce
takes a revealing look at the events that foreshadowed the two
wars. Gerald Linderman, author of Embattled Courage,
examines the two wars from the point of view of the combat
soldier. And Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., describes how both
Lincoln and FDR went around strict observance of the
Constitution in order to preserve the Constitution. There is,
in addition, a fascinating discussion of the crucial role
played by spying during the two wars, by Peter Maslowski; a
look at the diplomacy of Lincoln and Roosevelt, by Howard
Jones; and essays on the impact of the wars on women and on
African Americans, by D'Ann Campbell, Richard Jensen, and Ira
Berlin. In perhaps the most gripping piece in the book, Michael
C.C. Adams offers an unflinching look at war's destructiveness,
as he argues that the evils we associate with "bad wars" (such
as Vietnam) are equally true of "good wars." And finally, in
perhaps the most provocative essay in the book, Russell
Weigley, one of America's most eminent military historians,
maps the evolution of American attitudes toward war to our
present belief that the only acceptable war is one that is
short, inexpensive, and certain of victory. Would any great
commander, Weigley asks, would a Lee or a Grant or a Marshall,
refuse to fight unless he knew he couldn't lose? "Is not a
willingness to run risks for the sake of cherished values and
interests close to the heart of what defines greatness in a
human being or in a nation?"
Another Pulitzer winner and World War II veteran, Don E.
Fehrenbacher, concludes War Comes Again with a very
personal look at two common soldiers who have no monuments, who
have not been mentioned in previous histories, but who point at
the essence of these two wars and are "embedded in the very
structure of the enduring nation and the world we live in."
