The Most Dangerous Man in America: The Making of Douglas MacArthur

by Mark Perry - History, Nonfiction

General Douglas MacArthur matched an undeniable military genius with a massive ego and a rebellious streak that often seemed to destine him for the dustbin of history. Yet, despite his flaws, MacArthur is remembered as a brilliant commander whose combined-arms operation in the Pacific secured America’s triumph in World War II and changed the course of history. In THE MOST DANGEROUS MAN IN AMERICA, celebrated historian Mark Perry examines how this paradox of a man overcame personal and professional challenges to lead his countrymen in their darkest hour.
