The Making of a Professional: Manton S. Eddy, U.S.A, by Henry Gerard Phillips
Westport, Ct.: Greenwood, 2000. Pp. xx, 246. Illus, maps, notes, biblio., index. $65.00. ISBN:0-313-31183-8.
A solid biography of one of the best American division and corps commanders in the ETO during World War II, and one of the few who did not have the �advantages� of a higher education. There is a particularly valuable critical analysis of Eddy�s strengths and weaknesses. Important reading for anyone interested in the U.S. Army in World War II.
Reviewer: A. A. Nofi
