520 Groom tells the intertwined and uniquely American tales of
George Patton, Douglas MacArthur, and George Marshall.
These three remarkable men-of-arms who rose from the
gruesome hell of the First World War to become the finest
generals of their generation during World War II redefined
America's ideas of military leadership and brought forth a
new generation of American soldier. Against the backdrop
of the most dramatic moments of the twentieth century,
you'll discover new insights into the lives of America's
most celebrated warriors.
