As the son of Dwight DEisenhower, and as a career soldier and military historian, John Eisenhower brings impeccable historical credentials to the field of military history.... In They Fought at Anzio, Eisenhower focuses on the dilemma facing the commanders responsible and those who fought the battles and treated the wounded and the clying. He is well-versed to do so, and not only has he personally known some of the men he writes about, but his unique relationship with his father is a priceless historical asset that he has always judiciously utilized. - Carlo W. D'Este, author of Patton: A Genius for War
