Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 Eisenhower was very popular with Americans when he took office in 1953. But in his second term, the Soviets shocked the world by launching Sputnik in 1957, and the Americans struggled to catch up in the space race. In 1960, the Soviets shot down American U-2 spy plane pilot Francis Gary Powers on a covert CIA mission to photograph Soviet missile installations.
#2 Eisenhower had grappled cautiously with the burgeoning civil rights movement. In his second year in office, he called in the 101st Airborne to ensure the admission of nine Black students at the city’s Central High School.
#3 Eisenhower was ready to let it all go. He had already handed off the codes to launch a nuclear attack, and he had warned Kennedy about the dangers of Laos falling to communism.
#4 After the meeting, Eisenhower was taken by the young man’s charm. But he was wary that Kennedy didn’t fully understand the power of the office he was about to assume.
