- Summary:
- "As historian and biographer Mark Stoler has observed, the extraordinary career of George C. Marshall in the first half of the twentieth century paralleled the emergence of the United States as a great power. Indeed, this great servant-leader contributed substantively to virtually every important event and issue comprising that ascendance. Bringing together a who's who of Marshall scholars, this volume examines the major roles assumed by Marshall over his five-decade career--soldier, statesman, and peacemaker; and leader and manager--to illuminate key issues and themes surrounding the man and his era"-- [Provided by publisher]
