Picking up where Ike’s Journey left off, Victory in Europe recounts Eisenhower’s critical involvement in winning the war in Europe. From D-Day through the battle for France, Operation Market Garden, the Battle of the Bulge, and the crossing of the Rhine, Eisenhower overcomes every obstacle, leading the Allies to crushing victories over the Nazi armies and ending Hitler’s evil Third Reich.
From Pearl Harbor to Washington, London, North Africa, and Italy, Ike’s Journey follows Ike Eisenhower’s odyssey in the early years of World War II—one that tests the strength of his convictions, challenges his leadership, and prepares him to lead the greatest invasion in world history.
As the Civil War rages on, President Lincoln desperately seeks a commander to defeat the seemingly invincible Confederate general, Robert E. Lee, whose army has invaded Pennsylvania. Lincoln turns to the Old Snapping Turtle, General George Meade—a courageous man with remarkable integrity and a fiery temper—to save the Union during its greatest time of need.
