جزییات کتاب
Did it delay the assault on Europe for too long?
And how just how poor was its strategy to co-operate with Communist forces in Europe and the Far East?
These are just some of the questions that General Albert C. Wedemeyer, a top military strategist who served in World War Two and at the beginning of the Cold War, poses with his book Wedemeyer Reports!.
Through the course of his military career he assisted in planning the Normandy Invasion, served as Chief of Staff to Lord Mountbatten in the South-East Asia Theatre, before replacing General Joseph Stilwell to command U. S. forces in China and serve as Chief of Staff to the Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek.
Few men therefore were able to gain such a worldwide perspective on the Second World War and its aftermath.
His book Wedemeyer Reports! is not, however, a self-aggrandizing tome. Instead, Wedemeyer provides an objective and critical overview of this period and highlights the mistakes that were made during the course of World War Two that threw the world into the Cold War.
“General Wedemeyer reassesses each phase of the Allied invasion of Europe, the Pacific war, and American policies in Asia, very specifically in relation to the struggle between the Chinese Nationalists and the Chinese Reds.” Kirkus Reviews
“General Wedemeyer, who served during the Second World War both in Washington and in the Far East, gives his views of our handling of the conflict.” Foreign Affairs
Using information drawn from official correspondence and conversations, secret meetings and agreements, Wedemeyer sheds light on the miscalculations made by Allied high command in World War Two.
This is an absolute powder keg of a book that will completely revolutionize the way you view the tactical and diplomatic decisions made during the course of the Second World War.
General Albert C. Wedemeyer who served as an United States Army commander and strategist during World War Two and the Cold War. His book Wedemeyer Reports! was first published in 1958 and he passed away in 1989.
